against the French. Like the majority
of the English generals of note he was
of Irish birth. He first fought the
French troops in Portugal and in
Spain, where he offered them strong
resistance, and in 1914 he fought the
battle Of Toulouse at Soultz. His ca
reer in Spain made him hero and
resulted in his selection by the pow

fruits of her former victories and the
terrible disaster of Waterloo restored
the map of Europe to what it was

The Waterloo Lion.
The topography of the battlefield
has been changed somewhat by the
setting up of a memorial known as the
Waterloo Lion to mark the spot where
the Prince of Orange was wounded. II
consists of great artificial mound two
hundred feet high. containing three
hundred and twenty thousand cubic
feet of earth, surmounted by a huge
bronze hon weighing twenty Gig hit
tons. The lion was cast at Liege and
was made from the metal of captured
French cannon, The French soldiers
on their march to Antwerp in 1892
stopped long enough at this point to
hack off a part of the lions tail. This
has been replaced. The top of the
mound, reached by about two hundred
steps, commands the best survey of the
battlefield. and several times every day
guide by the aid of maps describes
the progress Of the battle from this
point,
