Fought with t4saaIana.

An ancestor OF Count Won Bernstorff,
the dismissed German ambassador,
fought against America in our war for
freedom. The fact Is brought out by
a passage in the Souvenirs du Che
Waller de Cussy." Among the acquain-
tances made by the chevaIier in 1890,
when he Joined the star OF the French
embassy in Berlin. was the court
chamberlain, Count Won BernstOrff,
grandfather Of the former ambassa-
dor. Countess Bernstorfr, /" wrote De
Cussy, bears a singular forename,
America. This was bestowed on her
because she was born In that country
during the war Of independence. Her
father was in command OF one Of the
regiments hired out to the English
by the elector of Hesse."

tanned wounds from which he died af-
