several military anecdotes" OF the bat

the most extraordinary escapes from
death on the field OF Waterloo. Lieut..

aid for hours, for when the surgeon

tells also OF the wife OF the quarter

husband In South America. and been
severely wounded. At Waterloo she
fingered with the regiment after the
hring commenced. However. the ad-
