The animal had run a-muck, killed a child, and then, turning on the mahout, seized him, dashed him to the ground, and trampled out any little breath that may have remained in his body. And here comes a strange and touching incident. Repenting seemingly of his awful misdeed, the elephant gathered up what was the moment before his master, proceeded to his (the mahout's) house, and, depositing his mournful burden at his door, passed on.
