Description

Excerpt from The History of Prussia: From the Earliest Times to the Present Day; Tracing the Origin and Development of Her Military Organization

The Prussians had some very peculiar domestic institutions. For instance, the head Of a family was permitted to get rid Of invalid parents, children, or servants, by burning them, the victims being considered to be purified and sanctified by the agency Of fire. Similarly, a father was at liberty to destroy sickly or deformed children by drowning or burning, on the principle that emiction is hate ful to both God and man.
