Fair sir yoa are the Dauphn to whom I am bid
to come"
But this man pointed to knight very richly

That is the king"
No, fair sir" said Joan. 1T is TO you that am

The Dauphin, for he it was to whom she spoke,
re-'lp surprised at this for Joan had never seen
him before. He consented to talk alone with her,
and no one has ever known what they said to each
other that day. Some say she told him he was the

Joan was given a beautiful suit-of white aFmor, and
that she led the army TO Orleans And further that

IN beautiful woods near the village of Domremy
stood an oak tree which called the Fairy Tree.
There was story that beautiful fairy used to meet
her lover beneath its branches Here the children Of
the village made feasts AID would hang gariands OF
flowers on the boughs of the tree, Joan, however liked
better to place wild flowers beneath the statues of saints
in the village church
Though Joan could run faster than the other
girls and boys and beat them when they ran races she
preferred to be quiet Nobody could sew and spin
better than Joan did, and she very often found
PRAYING in church alone. She often left OTHER CHILDREN
while at play and would go into lonely places where
she would .neel and ask God to have pity on her be-
loved country France The services in church the sing
inc and music made her very happy. At the sound Of
the church bells across the fields she would fan on her
knees and pray Any money she might have was spent

- 8, 1912, which was many, many years ago. This
was very troubled and unhappy tine in history for
the kings of England had been trying to make them
selves kings Of France for nearly hundred years
The king of France had one son, who was called
the Dauphn though his real name was Charles The
people of England said that he not the son OF the
king, and so had no right to the throne o: France
which, Of course gave the DauPhn much unhaPPiness'
The people of village nearby the one where Joan
lived took sides with the English and the boys OF the
two places often had pitched battles with sticks and
stones Joan used to her brothers, Peter and John
come home from these battles with their noses bleed

France: to drive away the English She used to cry,
and say
