As she was struggling with the assassins she was overcome with 'terror,; and fainted away and fell to the ground. Two favourite dogs who were with her ihen stood over her bady, and kept the assassins at bay, and finally drove them off. Lady Dixio has lately published letters denouncing the Leagtie, and describing the recent visit which she made to Ireland.
