tne groa. guns. from tho woOuen
wall the French were pouring upon
us n deadly FIRE from rifles ana
muskets. The bullets sang among lis
like the Kissing of million rattle
snakes, and curses and SHOUTS OF pain
from our mon were mingled with the
Internal uproar.
our front lines seemed 20 crumble
away, but the lines Denlnd took their
place. A strange, nauseating odor as
OF blended smoke ana blood assaulted
us, and for the moment sickened me.
The nlAp OF a bullet that nioked my
wrist as II passed stung me to re-
newed eXertion,
We crossed some water, whether n
brook or a ditch 1 did not have time
to see, and then we were into the tim
ber that enveloped the breastwork
like a green shroud. Only a little more
now ana we would pass through uhat
scorching fire, pour over that wall,
ana overpower the defenders!
Then a shout of rage rose even
above the clamor of the guns. The
lines, Americans, Highlanders, and
English alike, recOiled. We were con-
fronted by dense masses OF fallen
trees. with the tops Topped on at tine
ends, and every bouEh sharpened and
pointed toward US. We had charged
upon rows OF spikes rising above each
other, and as dangerous aA II they
had been made OF steel Lying behind
this deadly screen the French and
Canadian sharp shooters redoubled
their fire. Every twig and leaf
spouted death.
Hut only for the moment We re-
coiled. Brave men were there that
day, and desperate too. Then we
rushed upon the spiked Cmber and
endeavored to cut our way through
1t and reach the enemy. The ground
was cluttered with the fallen, and tho
ghastly heaps grew fast. | heard tho
bones cracking like glass beaten by a
tempest Of hail. But we did not
yield.
Some one struck heavily against mo,
and through tho film Of smoke | saw
that II was Major Mclean, stlll un-
hurt, his face as red as tho setting
sun, and his eyes sparkling with fury.
MAJOR" l shouted In his ear-what
prompted me to do II do not know -
lit appears that we will not 90 into
Ticonderoga today"
"If we do not go in to-day, We will
go in morrow" he shouted. mo,
by God. we will go in to-day On,
my men! Scotchmen, for tho love OF
Heaven, do not let a few misenhle
Frenchmen and Canadians hold US
back! Into the breastwork! Into tho
breastwork"
The blast OF a cannon split the col
umn OF smoke asunder, and l stood
aghast, for | saw that only six or
eight men were loft with us. Tho
major rushed toward them, waving
his sword and renewing his shout:
over the breastwork, men over
the breaBtworkW
There was crash as OF hundred
rifles at once, and the entire squad
fell. Only the major and | we're left.
