In the full exultation of vengeance, they stopped at the house of A rdvoirlich, and demanded refreshment, which the lady, a sister of the murdered Drummond-E rnoch, (her husband being absent,) was afraid or unwilling to refuse. She caused bread and cheese to be placed before them, and gave directions for more substantial refreshments to be prepared. While she was absent with this hospitable intention, the barbarians placed the head of the brother on the table, filling the mouth with bread and cheese, and bidding him eat, for many a merry meal he had eaten in that house. The poor woman returning, and beholding this dreadful sight, shrieked aloud, and fled into the woods, where, as described in the romance, she roamed (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Robert Bruce Warden
Edit ProfileEducation
In 1840 he began the study of law in Cincinnati. A trial for murder by poisoning which he observed intimately during this period determined him to undertake a course of study at the Starling Medical College of Columbus.
Career
He served for five years as deputy clerk of the court of common pleas of Hamilton County, and in April 1845 was admitted to the bar. In 1851 Warden was elected one of the judges of the county court of common pleas and in 1853-55 was reporter of the state supreme court. He lectured at that college on the forensic doctrines of insanity, elaborating his ideas in a volume entitled A Familiar Forensic View of Man and Law (1860). Appointed judge of the supreme court of Ohio by Gov. William Medill to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Chief Justice John A. Corwin, he took office early in 1855, but served on this bench only a few months before a popular election was held by which Joseph R. Swan was chosen to fill the office. Warden resumed the reportership for a time and then returned to practice, forming a partnership in Columbus with Otto Dresel. Toward the end of the Civil War he removed to Cincinnati and in 1873 to Washington, D. C. Here in 1877 he became a member of the board of health of the District of Columbia, by appointment of President Hayes, serving also as attorney of the board until its expiration. He then practised law in Washington for the rest of his life, in partnership with his son, Charles G. Warden. In 1874 he published An Account of the Private Life and Public Services of Salmon Portland Chase. Warden died in Washington in 1888.
