Criticism of him hus to find comfort in the fact that he is old, that he fought in the Francu- Prussian war, and that his driving force theoretically shoul^l be exceeded by that of a younger man. v He Is one of a group of great French leaders who got their earlier training lii ihe 1870-71 struggle with Germany.
