surrounded by a few Of his marshals
who still remained faithful, was in BIT
ter meditation at Fontainebleau. Ap-
parently he realized for the first time
that detection and opposition were
getting too strong for him. When he
learned that the allies had captured
Paris he gave way to the whole fury Of
his Corsican temperament. But his
indomitable spirit was not yet crushed.
Despite the discouraging outlook he
nourished a faint hope that he might
recapture the city and regain his
throne. To gain time to work out his
plans he sent two OF his marshals with
an offer to abdicate in favor OF his
son, the young king of Rome. This
offer was rejected without ceremony
by the allied sovereigns, who had al
ready agreed upon the restoration Of
the Bourbons. Ia 5 s. y

my mind, lies in the proper business

Resources of almost inconeeivable
