though up 10 the age OF ~ she danced
with them around the Fairy Tree in a
wood near her home. a tree which,
according 20 a local superstition, had
some supernatural power. In her
trial for heresy this childish play was
brought forward as proof that even
then she was something OF a witch.
Another local superstition was that
a maid Of the neiEhborhocd would
some day save France, but there was

cause was going badly, and the people
OF Vaucouleurs, learning OF jeanne
mission. began 70 urge the comman-
dant 10 send her TO the king. Then,
one day, Jeanne announced in the
town that the kings troops had that

by the girl, and the commandant be-

he sent for her, after attiring him

him and addressed him as sire" She
told him she had been commanded BY
