In the biography Of Prince Bismarck
1t is said that when he was minister at
st. Petersburg he was walking one
morning in the summer garden and met
the car, who invited him to join him.
Presently Bismarck noticed q sentry
stationed in the middle Of a large grass
plot and asked the aid-de-camp, who in
turn inquired of the sentry.
cit is ordered" was his reply.
Every official gave the same answer,
lit is ordered" but nobody knew by
whom. A sentry had always stood
guard in the middle Of that innocent
grass plot The archives were searched,
but in vain. At last an aged official
was found, who had been told by his
father that the Empress Catherine had
once seen q snowdrop ready to bloom in
the spot, and had ordered sentry to
stand guard and allow no one to pluck
it. For more than century the watch
had been maintained because sit was
ordered and no one had ever thought
of disobeying or Of questioning the rea-
son of the order.
