  3. The History of the beautiful Miss Fermia, a vintner's daughter of Savona : Her marriage to Lorenso, a master baker, of Genoa, against her father's consent-their living together three or four years very happy-his applying to his father-in-law for a portion with his wife-his refusal of the same, and his denial of seeing her any more-her husband taking to drinking, and all manner of wicked debauchery, they became very distressed-her writing to her father to take her little son from starving-his consenting to the same.-Her husband's murdering her, by cutting her throat from ear to ears, in a vineyard, about two miles from the city-his not being found out to be the murderer-his removal to Rome, and getting to be baker to the Duke of Florence-his following his old extravagant ways, and his income not able to support him-his robbing a young goldsmith of several valuable articles, and tried for the robbery, and received sentence of death-his confession of the murder of his wife, about an hour before his execution, who proved to be the mother of the young Goldsmith, and he his father.-The dreadful scene after the discovery was so affecting, it drew tears from many of the spectators eyes.-The young Goldsmith's removal after the unhappy execution of his father to his grandfather.-The old gentleman dying some time after, left him his whole estate. The above being published as a caution to children to be dutiful to their parents; and likewise for parents not to persist in not seeing a child after her committing a fault, which was the cause of his daughter and her husband losing their lives, and her father shortening his days
