We found just the man. He was a youns soldier at the time the greatest mutiny of the ages broke out, and he was put with others inside the residency, whioh was a cluster of buildings making a fortress in which the representa- tives of the English Goverement lived and which was to be the scene of an endurance and a bombardment the story which poetry and painting and history and secular and sacred eloquence have been trying to de- piet, Oar escort not had = memory of what had happened, but had talent enough to rehearse the tragedy, In the early part of 1857 all over India the natives were ready to break out in rebellion against all foreigners and especially against the civil and military representatives of the English Government, A half dozen causes are mentioned for the feeling of discontent and insurrection that was evinced throughout India, The of these causes were mere pretexts. Greased cartridges were no doubt an exasperation, The grease ordered by the Er Govern ment to be used on these cartridges was taken from cows or pigs, and grease to the Hindoos is unclean, and to bite these o tridges at the loading of the guns would an offense to the Hindoo religion. The leaders the Hindoos sald that thess greased cartridges was only part of an at- tempt by the English Government 10 make the natives give up their religion ; hence, un- bounded indignation was aroused, Another cause of the mutiny was that an- other large province of India had beea an- of aly good only good ish al of nexed to the British empire, and thousands | of officials in the employ of the King of that province were thrown out of position. and they were all ready for trouble making. Another cause was said to be the bad gov- ernment exercised by some English officials in India. The simple fact was that the natives of In- i dia were a cosguored race, and the English wers the conquerors. For 100 years the British scepter had been waved over India, and the Indians wanted to break that soep- ter. There never had been any love or sym- | pathy between the natives of India and the | Itupenns, © Thers is-nous now, Beiore thetime of the great mutiny the | English Government risked much power in the hands of the natives, Too many of them manned the forts, Too many of them wers in the Governmental employ, And now the time had come for a wide outbreak. The natives had persuaded themselves that they could send the English Government and to accomplish it dagger and sword and firearms and mutilation and slaughter must do their worst, It was evident In Lucknow that the na- tives were about to rise and put to death all the Europeans they could lay their hands on, and into the residency the Christian pop- ulation of Lucknow hastened for deflenss from the tigers in human form walch were growling for their vietims The occupante of the residency, or fort, wers-military an! non-combatants, men, women and children -in number about 1692, I suggest in one sentence some of ehiel woes to which they were subjected when I say that these people were in the residency five months without a single change of clothing ; some of the time the heat at 120 and 130 degrees | the place black with flies and all a-squirm with vermin firing of the enemy upon them ceasing neither day nor night . the hospital erowded with the dying , smalipox, seurvy, cholera, adding their work to tnat of shot and shell women brought up in all comfort and ne having known want, crowded and saeri fleed in a collar where nine children were born ; less and less fool; no water ex cept that which was brought from a weil under the snamy’s fire, so that the wats: . tained was at the price of blood , the stench of the dead horses added to the efMuvia of corpses, and all waiting for the wu» ) when the army of 60.000 shrieking Hindoo devils shoald break in upon the garrison of the residency, now reduce! by wounds and sickness and Jeath to 976 men, women and children, “Call me early,” I sald, “to-morrow morn- ing, and let us be at the residency belorethe sun becomes too hot,” At 7 o'clock in the morning we laft our hotel in Lucknow. and I said to our obliging, gentlemanly eseort, “Please take us along the road by which Havelock and Outram came to the relief of the residency.” That was the way we went There was a solemn stillness as we ap- proached the gate of the residency, Bat tered and torn is the masonry of the one trance, Signature of shot and punctuation of cannon ball all up and down and every- where, “Here to the left,” sald our eseort, “are the remains of a building the first floor of which in other days had been nsed as a ban queting hall, but then was used as a hos pital. At this part the amputations took place, and all such patients died, The heat was 80 great and the food so insuffieient that the poor fellows sould not recover from the loss ol blood. They all died, Ampu- tations were performed without ehloroform, All the anasstheti's were exhausted, A fracture that in other climates and an- der other circumstances would have come to easy couvnlescenes here proved fatal, Yon. the Var der was Dr, Fayrer's house, who wae sur. ! geon of the pince and is now Queen Vistor- This upper room was the pf | a's doctor, cers’ room, and there Sir Henry Lawrenoe, our dear commander, was wounded, While he sat thers a shell strook the room, and some one suggested that he had bstter leave the room, but he smiled and sald, ‘Lightning never strikes twice ia the same piace’ Hacdly bad he sald this when another shell tore off histhigh, and he was carried dying into Dr, Fayrer's house on the other side of the road. Bir Henry Lawrences had been In poor health for a long time before the mutiny, He had been fn the Indian servies for years, and he had | started jor Engiand to recover his health, Put getting as iar as Bombay the English @overnment requested him to remain at least awhie, or he could not be in such dabgerous times, He came hers to Lucknow, und loresesing the siege of this ency bad Mlled many of the rooms with n, without which the residency would vo been obliged to sarrender, There were also taken by him into this residency rice fruit | But in my recent journey round the | world I found at Lucknow, Indin,the remains | flying, | i and suear and ohareoa! and fodder for the oxen and hav for the horses, Bat now, at the time when all the people were looking to him for wis lom and courage, Sir Henry i Is dying.

But one day they heard the guns of relief! sounding nearer and nearer. Yet all the houses of Lucknow were fortresses filled with armed miscreants, and every sicp of Havelock and his army was contested firing from housetops, firing from windows, firing from doorways, ah into the nen or ron aed ir ped, ome t I asked our friend If ho thouzht that the | world famous story of a Seoteh lass in her lelirtum hearing the Scotch bagpipes ad vaucing with the Scotch regiment was a trues story, He said he did not know but that it was trae, Without this man's telling me I knew from my own observation that de lirium sometimes quickens some of the fae ulties, and I rather think the Scotoh lass in her delirium was the first to hear the bag- pipes, [| decline to believe that class of peoples who would liketo kill all Tae poetry of the world and banish all the flae sen- timent, They tell us that Whit tier's poem about Barbara Freitohie was founded on a delusion, and that Longfellow's poems immortalized things that never oc. curred, The Heoteh lass did hear the slo- gan, I almost heard it myself as I stood in- side the residency while my escort told of | the coming of the Seventy-elghth Highland | Regiment, “Ware yoa present when Havelock same In?" I asked, for I could suppress the ques. tion no longer. His answer came “Lwas not at the moment present, but with some other young fellows I saw sol diers dancing while two highland pipers played, and [ said, ‘What is all this excite. ment?
