battle of the 100 years up to the time
of the battle of Mukden in the Japan

There was a sound Of reveiry by night
And Belgium's capital had gathered
there
Her beauty and her chivalry"
Also read, as perhaps the finest de-

in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables."
That famous cavalry charge over the
ground that was not well known and
where they charged over q pTec:r!ce,
is well described.
In Byrons poem, it says:
Rider and horse, friend. foe, in one
red burial blent." John w. Weis.
