When war began the son marched
away with his fathers old regiment.
Before a month had passed the son

and red fez OF the ZouAves were dom

After Fort VAux had fallen, the
old soldiers regiment was transferred
to the defense Of the works Of Thiau-
mont and the village OF Flaury. The
furious struggle here for days was
the talk Of the world. Gaglio was

These batteries consist OF six TT

pieces we captured.

Though there have been no real op

Indeed, this movement, which APP
