Thumbs Down for 5ouehard.
Haggard and at bay, Bouchard faced
the circle of frowns around the pol
ished expanse of that precious heir
loom, the, dining-room table of the Gal
lands. The dreaded reckoning of the
apprehensions which kept him rest

their artillery strength, which we had
greatly underestimated," said the
chief Of artillery.
Our maps OF their forts could not
be less correct il revealed to US for
purposes of deceit. Again and again
we have thought that we had them
