From the Detroit News. The old Druid religion was a dread- ful one in many aspects. and no phase of it was more evil than the cere- monies that were conducted in thei sacred grove just outside the walls of Marseille. The trees were oaks and no human hand had laid an ax to the forest since the creation of it. As a result the underbrush had grown up and the trees themselves had so interlaced limbs and leaves that the interior of the grove was almost as dark as if it were perpetual night, as no ray of sun could penetrate to its Feart. A slime-covered creek twisted about among the trees, its waters an inky blackness, and it Is said that no four-footed animal could live in ithe grove or any bird perch on the trees. Deep in the heart of the grove. reached only by a secret and (w isted path. the Druid stones were set up. ghastly gray piles with flat tops, so that the bodies of the men. wemen and children to be sacrificed could be laid. nude and helpless upon- ft.| The priests, with stonc knives. would disembowel the screaming victims| or would slowly cut their throats.| chanting prayers as the death gurgle eshoed in the grim forest.
