THE FINAL ADlEU THE JOUR
NEY SOUTHWARK.

General Petit advanced with the
eagle standard Napoleon clasped him
in his arms and fervently kissed the
standard. Then, AS they parted, Ia
tiembled and almost broke down. But
with final effort he regained control
OF himself and again spoke firmly:
"Adieu, once again, my old compsn-
ions May this last embrace penetrate
your hearts,
Once more he embraced Petit and
kissed the eagle. Then without word
he threw himself into the waiting car
riage and was driven away amid the
sobs and tears Of the Old Guard, every
one Of whom had begged 10 be in
cluded in the four hundred who might
accompany him 10 Elba.
All that afternoon Of April %, az they
drove southwark toward the sea, this
exile was greeted with respect. Three
days later after passing Lyons, they
began TO see French troops wearing
white cockades and now and then heard
hostile cries. At Orange and at Avi-
gnon there were actual menaces. They
were now in the region where Ma
poleon's first great services had been
rendered, but every moment the hostil-
I ity increased. At Orgon A savage al.
tack was made and the Emperor mar
rowly escaped death at the hands Of a
mob which a few weeks before would
have cheered him 10 the echo.
At La Calade the house in which
they stopped TO rest and 10 eat was at
tackled by mob intent on murder and
Napoleon escaped through one OF the
back windows disguised as a courier
and suffering what was TO him the un-
speakabe humiliation Of wearing the
AK was reached it was not deemed safe
10 pass through the city, so the little
expedition made a circuit around II.
Even this was not considered sufti-
cient to assure Napoleon's safety, AMI
so he was disguised by wearing the
Prussian helmet of Count Waldbury-
Truchess. the Russian cloak Of Gen.
eral Schouvalof and the rest OF tn
uniform Of the Austrian General Kol-
Ter. In this fashion. on April -, they
finally reached the coast at Frejus
There the exile was received upon the
English frigste Undaunted with
royal salute and with all possible re-
sDect. The next day they sailed on TIE
2O0-mile voyage TO Elba. For three
days they traversed the Ligurian Sea
and then passed the northern extremity
Of Napoleon's native isle Of Corsica
Finally, i've days out from the shore
Of France the frigate entered the har-
Dor OF Porto Ferrajo, and the men who
had been the iItocrat of Europe's
gSeatest empire entered for few
months Ipon the sovereignty OF mis-
tiny realm.
