passed through a crowd of 800, 900 people
in his triumphal ride up the great thor
oughlare. The eliminating moment,
however, occurred when the great Hun
garian patriot reached the corner of
Broadway and Ann street. The sight
that burst upon him staggered him for
the moment. In the open square direct
ly before him was maSsed together a
quarter Of Il million Of people. and when
this vast c0ncourSc broke into Il united
cheer koSsuth was fairly bewidcred.
No man saw this great event so well
and advantageouSly as did Parlie God
