The nobleman swore roundly at the bad government of the Council of Ten who | ruled the Venetian Republic. He blamed them for incompetence {n allowing such a theft to go unpunished, then left the city in disgust. While his gondola was on {ts way across the lagoon to the mainland {t encountered a small boat floating idly In the path the gondola must take. In the boat lay a dead body, {n whose hand was clutched the gold-stuffed purse. On the dead thief’s chest was pinned with a dagger a note from the Council of Ten advising the nobleman to be less rash henceforth -in accusing the Council of failure to detect and punish crimes. The foregoing is but one of countless incidents showing the weird and theatrical elects by which the Council of ‘Leu kept up its reputation for luystery and subtle power, i Vhis Council, stow as “1 Dieci" ("Tue Ten”), began to rule Venice in (OW MAU tur Centulies Feladed 8 _hp UW the Lepubliga Guidi, lack myatery wey THE uUUed IE dud He Chuck power was yusler Chau Wit of any, 8 Taso eno April The Venetian aepuulic, wiih Venive tur ie capitedy } Nout suciuded Lhe coast wibtricis of thy AdviMiie anu ie Levanty sD vewiuey severai uetacned islands, 1b y tuled by, woul OF Wiesideut, ato elected, Was nom +. veer, Wi Bo lhe eas Wie Ad Who wd supposed Wy Wield BledL MULHUOLIL), ae & idler Ub Lucy SHU Lose came iu be litve more Lid Lae eave uf the Le Por eawtupie, the great Doge, duariiy datierl, vice puaiuued to cush tho Couns SH w poWer, Aa a dueuit tia Un Livad Wis Cu vit, ane aun ut Lie og, Posearl, Wee WOMUTEd Ly Geml Uy Ge Le LOr Garis WU PeUeL agaist Gudk Leu) & culls Walua, 4ie COUKCH even Gelb Lie uuly wusiur ub ie Lope.
