He SOUGHT DEATH.
Tn, Unfortunate Napoleon III. at the
Battle of Sedan.

Sarah Bernhardt mentions in her me-
moirs that Napoleon III. had two
horses shot under him at Sedan. Some
having thrown doubt on her statement
and denied that the emperor was ever
in personal danger at the time, Baron
Verly, son of the late colonel of the
Cent Gardes, gives what he afiirms to
be the authentic account of the unhap-
py sovereign's persistent attempts to
court death when he saw that defeat
was unavoidable. On Sept. 1, 1870.
at 6 o'clock in the morning, Marshal
MacMahon, returning wounded to Sc
dan, met the emperor riding out to
Bazeilles. Napoleon III. realized that
the situation was desperate. He rode
slowly out, depressed and thoughtful.
under a hail of shot. During an hour
he inspected the positions. Bullets
rained on his escort. Captain d'Hende-
court was killed a few feet away from
the emperor. The latter, deliberately
seeking death. alighted, ordered his es-
cort TO remain behind an embankment
and walked up to a cemetery on
height. where he stayed for another
hour. exposed to fire. He mounted
again and rode to another part of the
field General de Courson and Captain
de Trecesson were dangerously wound
ed by his side. but not n bullet hit him.
The emperor at last seemed to despair
of meeting his death as he sought 1t
and rode back to Sedan at noon. In
the town itself shells fell thick. and
while the emperor was riding with his
escort up the Grand Rue one burst
Just in front of him. wounded one OF

horses killed under him is. therefore.
not correct. But there is no doubt that
the unfortunate emperor. beaten and
