sketch Of Kings life.

January 81, 1929. He was the son OF
Oscar / and grandson Of Charles XIV
Of Sweden, the famous Marshal Berna-
dotte. Oscar II succeeded to the
thsone of Sweden and Norway on the
death of an elder brother, Charles XIV,
in 1872.
For thirty-five years a monarch, Os-
car II enjoyed a reign OF unbroken
peace as to foreign relations, but saw
the dissolution of the unions exist
ing between the two kingdoms OF
Sweden and Nosway, which his most
patient efforts retarded but could not
prevent. The relations OF the two
kingdoms formed the main political
concern of King Oscars life, and re-
main as the most significant event Of
his reign.
Oscas, pany s'ears before ascending
the throne in 1857 married cophia,
of Nassau. daughter Of the late Will
helm, Duke of Nassau. He had by her
four sons, the Princes Gustaf, Oscar,
Carl, and Eugen Gustaf, Duke OF
Wermland. the eldest, is successor to
tine throne. He married Victoria OF
Baden in 1881, and has several chill
dsen
There are few monarchs who have
been more admired or loved than Os-
car by the people Of Sweden, and
probably no monarch was better liked
outside his realm. Oscar had been
rre-eminently the man Of talent among
his brothers OF the European thrones,
He wrote extensively in verse and
prose. in Swedish and in French. He
was the close friend Of such men as
Lord Salisbury and he made fsiends
of even his enemies. as witness the
case Of the writer Bjornson, who once
challenged his monarch to a duel.
Physically, King Oscar was as re
markedly as in his other traits. He
was commandingly tall powerfully
built. and. until recent years, in con-
tinuos good health and maintained
vigor. That he possessed both address
and courage is witnessed by medal
which he wore. 1t was medal for
bravery, awarded by the French gov
esnment in 1861 for two separate res
