THE STORY OF LUCKNOW.
A Reunion Called Up Memories of
That Famous Relief.

AAAACS
Tuesday being the thirty-seventh a%nniver-
sary OF the entry into Lucknow of the force
under Generals Havelock and Outram, the
survivors OF the original garrison and of
nual custom. General Sir William Olpherts,
V. c., presided, and the toast of "Our De-
parted Comrades was drunk in solemn 81

seems, Is the possessor of a unique sobri-
quet. The manner in which he obtained 1t

men. This is how the General is known
unto this day as "Hell-fre Dick"
The m story of the relief of Luck
now Is thus told by a survivor: Suddenly

close to my ear. My companion stood up
right beside me. her arms raised and her
head bent forward in the attitude of listen

her countenance; she grasped my hand,
drew me toward her and exclaimed: Dinna,

upon the soldiers would be impossible. For
a moment they ceased firing, and every
soul listened with intense anxiety. Grad
ually, however, there arose a murmur Of
bitter disappointment; and the wailing of
the women who had focked out began anew
as the colonel shook his head. Our dull
lowland ears heard nothing but the rattle
OF the ~musketry. A few moments more of
this death-like suspense, of this agoniZing
hope, and Jessie. who had sunk on the
ground, sprang to her feet, and cried in a
voice so clear and piercing. that IL was

that moment we seemed indeed TO hear the
voice Of God in the distance, when the
bagpipes of the Highlanders brought us

no longer any doubt OF the fact. The shrill,
penetrating, ceaseless sound, which rose
above all other sounds, would come neither
from the advance OF the enemy nor from
