There was nothing In his military note- I
book save records of his numerous
campaigns. He was n soldier, pure i
and simple. As Boullgny says, he was |
typical of all that was best tn the le- j

history was written in bis heart. He !
wore the medals of Morocco, Tonkin,
the war cross with several palms and i
Dually the military medal?a glorious
record. Victor acted always as a *"
stimulant; he was always gay and al- <
ways kind.

that I was suffering. He came to me
