What type of maniacal force actuated the men who qestrgyed the monuments and tombstones in the cemetery ? iter the men were temporavily insane or insanely drunk. Newman in his sober senses would have done what they did. Igy one: instance, there was a representation of an angel atop a tombstone, so they fiendishly broke it off. Blinded by ruthless hate, they had no regard for the sanctity of crdyis, and they attacked the representation of the angel withJa® much fury as they would have attacked some foul sreature that was threatening their lives. If these men have returned to their sober senses, as- ¢«uming they have sober senses to which to return, they are now gripped by remorse for their cowardly acts. In the heat of passion, a man murders another, but when he ool® down he wishes a thousand times he had not com- : saittéd murder. His remorse continues as long as his mem- ; ory lasts, and so will the remorse of these attackers of the lead continue as long as they are able to think, assuming igain they are not ingane.
