Saved from the Enemy

I WAS Just I6 years old It was IN the
January OF 1871. The French town
in which / lived was besieged by the
Prussians. For two months the enemy
had held our little garrison blockaded
like a fox in its hole. 1t was a terrible
winter. II showed necessarily. Cold
and hunger were harder 10 contend
with than the enemy himself. and the
fever thinned our ranks faster than
his bullets.
In order 10 warm our blood from
time 20 time we made little sorties. but
il was labor in vain, for we were in
elosed in a circle Of fire. Those who
fell suffered no more, and those who
survived continued t. deceive them
selves with the hope of escape. In our
home there remained but my mother
and me. Ny father was sergeant and
color-bearer in one OF the companies
which the citizens had formed from the
first moment of the invasion.
One morning he came home, having
fought through the entire night, and.
embracing my mother, inquired for
me. Ny mother replied that I was at
the military school, where he had en-
tered me. Just then came in with my
drum on my shoulder belt. happy 20

time. and whistiing like a blackbird.

II believe so. my father"
In fact. knew there was no ore who
could teach me how to better handle a
drum.
let me see how you can beat your
drum" said my father. Very well
Now beat for charge"
beat my drum so furiously that un.
der the inspiring call I felt that ]
could lead an assault on the bells OF
the cathedral tower.
"Well done!" said my father; "that Is
hrst-rate"
Then he said nothing more until my
mother had gone TO her chamber
when ne drew me closer to him, and
said. gently:
Listen, my son; the enemy has
killed many OF our men. and. besides. {
hundred men. at least, are wounded
