thus describes the ride, and Cardigan's appear

The pace for some time was firmly governed.
When hoTsemen, too valorOu5 to be thinking of

their tendency is TO be gallOpiug sH ifly for

exact trom his o~u charger, thus destroying, OF
cour,e, the formation OF the line; bat Lord
Cardlgan's love OF strict uniform order was q

and as long as II seemed possible to exert
authority by veice or gesture, the leader of

"lorce the pace" pressed forward so much as
to be almost alongside OF the chiefs birdie arm,
Lord Cardigan checked this impaience by
laying his sword across the Captains breast,
telling him at the same time not to try to force
the pace and not to be riding before
the leader OF the brigade. Otherwise than
for this, Lord Cardigan, from the tirst to

the brigade never fell into doubt concerning It's

was guItless OF even iuclining to any default
except that OF falling to keep down the pace.
But although he rode singly, aud

the effort to govern il by voice or by gesture, he
either became impatient himself, and drew the
troops on more and more by hrst increasing his
