or native troops The religious fanati.
cism OF these native soldiers was SO
cleverly worked upon by Mana and
other secret agents that they rose in
body against the English.
Mana, when the mutiny broke out,
declared himself ready to die In the
defense OF his British friends They
trusted him absolutely. But as soon
as tho uprising showed signs of sue
cess he cast aside the mask OF 10y
atty, placed himself at the head OF
Sopoy army, and proceeded to wreak
horrible vengeance for his real or fan
cied wrongs.
He slew every white man, woman or
child that fell into his hands. Then
he marched against the plucky little
British garrison at Cawnpore. The
garrison held out as long as 1t could.
then on Nana's promise to spare them
all and to send them to a place of
safety. the starving white men at
length surrendered. This was on June
27. 1857 Mana ordered the garrison
to march out OF the city and to board
line OF boats awaiting them at the
rivers edge. No sooner were the boats
afioat than by Nana's orders the help

every one of them was shot or drown
ed. Those who reached land alive suf-
fered the worst fate OF all. The women
and children had been herded sepa-
rately In an enclosed space. They
were now killed and their bodies
thrown into a great well.
Battle after battle Mana fought with
the white troops during the next few
months, almost always being beaten In
fair fight. but continuing to massacre
any small detachments Of English he
could find. His willy brain and heart
less cruelty made him scourge to the
British until the whole Mutiny was
stamped out.
Then England wreaked fearful ven
geance on her crushed foes. Native
! leaders were tied TO the cannon's
mouth and blown to pieces. Other cru
elites were inflicted that could be part

ed that the avengers were mad with
anguish over the brutal murders OF
their wives and children.

tors suffered punishment, Mana Sahib

they had was at once ruined by Philip,
