He admitted having stolen the body from its crept about nine years before, and of having practiced strange acts of necro- mancy in an effort to restore life to the preserved body. He had carefully cleaned away all signs of decay, and using plaster of Paris, wax, and cheese cloth to build up the tissues, had artfully wrought a.semblance of life. Although the details of this strange love affair shocked the entire nation, the authorities found that it was impossible to prosecute the white-haired alien! for ‘any breach of. the criminal ‘law. A statute of limitation bars Prosecution for the crime of grave-robbing if more than seven years have elapsed after the com- mission of the crime. Since more than seven years had elapsed since the “Count” had eloped from the cemetery with his dead sweetheart, the authorities were compelled to release him.
