The Strange Triple Duel of Horatii and Curatii
Horatia, daughter of a noble Roman family, loves Curatius of Alba Longa. The Horatii and Curatii duel ends with Horatius killing Curatius and taking the cloak. Horatia mourns, Horatius is punished by a fine, and her body lies unburied until stones mark her grave. A separate note reports a telephone exchange manager using periodic ringing to deter burglars.
