by al sorts OF funny little people and in
many strange lands Although writer's OF

ways 20 most OF his predecessors, did not
know this one thing. The result was that
the country suffered for years from a ter

lost not only his crown but his life. After
the civil war began three OF the Kings

to run. and soon changed TO a fast gallop-
It was down hill and 50 Il was easy for
the horse to keep her pace My brother,
who was driving. had on mittens. and SO
could not get a firm grip on the reins.
We were going faster and faster. and the
horse did not keep in the middle OF the
road. Coming 70 snowdrift my brother
and I were tumbled out. but my mother
was left in the sleigh. The reins were

might try 10 make him King instead OF his
elder brother, Charles, and at last he
found friends who were willing TO carry
out plan for the escape of the prince.
The royal children al this time were al

in the evenings often played at hide and

this game every evening for a week or
two, and TO find such good hiding places
that he might. not be easily found In this
way the attendants became accustomed 20
his being missing for a long while, but
always turning up again. On the night on

secure key for a little gate leading into
the park. When it was his turn to hide
he opened the gate. and on the other side
