As a ReyOiutiOnist

As ReyOiutiOnist
Turning his back upon France in the
midst of her history making and going
to Ajaccio it might almost be said that
he carried the revolution with him. He
restlessly promoted the formation of
revolutionary clubs and machinery. while
he stallSed the floor of his room at night
reading and declaiming Caesars Com
mentaries and other narratives of heroic
action.
He returned to his regiment at Aux
onne, after an absence of year and a
quarter. If he had found it hard to live
on $40 a month when alone he must now
endure greater hardships, for he had
brought his 2-year-old brother Louis with
him. He hoped to get the boy into a mill
tary school, but while awaiting to have
the government take him off his hands
he must be his teacher.
AS an aspiring and prolific author he
: met the bitterest reverse Of all when
he sent his History of Corsica" to Paoil,
now returned from his 20 years exile in
England, with the request that he be per-
mitted to dedicate the work to his idol.
The idol was as cold as marble, replying
the consciousness of duty done and frank
ly suggesting that history should not be
written in youth. More cruel still the
old man mislaid the precious manuscript
and when urged to return it answered that
he did not have time to search for it
among his papers.
In spite of his preoccupation with his
pen, the desertion of the aristocrats
thrust upon Napoleon promotion to a
first lieutenancy and he received orders
to return to Valence. where he went back
to his old lodgings at Mile Bou's and be-
came the secretary OF a revolutionary
club.
Fleeing From Opportunity
This was the period of Louis xVrs
attempted flight and arrest The tide
was moving with increasing swiftness
and Napoleon once more returned to
Corsica to seek martial glory with the
new island militia which was organ
izing as part of the national guard
"The post of honor of a good Corsicon."
said this lieutenant in the army of
France, 'is in his own country"
Not long after his return to Ajaccio
saying to Letizia, who had cared for him
in his declining years, Joseph is the
oldest, but Napoleon will be the head
of the family He will be great man."
This prophetic uncle kept his fortune
in gold, which was tied up in a bag
and concealed under the mattress Of
his bed 1t was a welcome windfall to
the impoverished Bonapartes, but in
stead of employing 1t to pay off mort
cages the new head of the family used
it as a campaign fund.
After long and exciting struggle he
won the election to lieutenant colon
elcy in the Corsican national guard. At
the same time he r4ised up a lifelong
enemy in the person of Carlo Andrea
Pozzo di Borgo. whose family home
stead stands to this day on the Rue
Napoleon, near the Bonaparte house.
All Europe became the theatre of the
vendetta between these two young Cor
sicans, Puzzo proving to be. Napoleon 3
most relentless nemesis. Echoes of
their feud are still heard in Ajaccio,
