roaring. not TO be stilled until the road
was clear for Wellington to march to
Madrid. The iron duke" was very
busy completing arrangements for the

farmyard wall. Wellington rode in
and they tucked the leg of a chicken
into one of his fists and a chunk of
bread into another. He munched as
he sat in the saddle. Suddenly he set
spurs TO his horse called on them to
follow, threw his leg of chicken over
his shoulder and galloped as II for

magazine, which was good deal
larger than he had anticipated. The

the cares OF the world he ordered an
elaborate repast. His companion. be-
