Presently party Of soldiers appeared,
/ bearing wounded man on 4 litter. They
had hardly passed, when the younger of
the two women, as If actuated by q sud-
den impulse, sprang up and followed them.
Addressing veteran Of the party, she
said in low tono Soldier, can you tell
me what part of the field the = Life
Guards occupied during the action, aud
whether any Of their wounded are still left
behind Z" He looked at her for moment
with an ar of surprise, and then replied,
We are now bearing a sergeant of their
corps to the village of Waterloo, nly lady,
where some of our men have just tai Ken
one of their wounded officers" The sol
dicrs passed on, ard shc rejoined hcl al
tendant who in the meantime had risen
TO meet her. They followed tie party at
such distance as to keep them iu sight
without being observed themselves. IN
this manner they proceeded for some tune,
til the soldiers halted to rest for few
minutes upon the spreading roots ola large
oak tree, close to which, in the course of
the day, the Duke Of Wellington had Ia
ken up his position. From the latter cir
cumstancc this old tree has since been
distinguished by the title Of "the Wei
lington oak F." The party soon pro-
cccued on thor march, still followed by
the two females Presently they came
to a farmhouse; this they passed without
second halt; but the young girl and her at
tendant agreed to enter the yard, where
they seated Themselves on = stone. Here
q scene f utt desola.ion presentc. Itself;
boC.i OF men and horses were lying about
III Ill directions, as we'll ns baj o1,t sie sths
and the rags Of clothes which covered the
rroun1 Finding the house unoccupied,
they were glad to turn from this heart
rending scene and proceed on their way.
