THE DhA T1H OF BMCH I'R...
After the events through which th
mapl of E":urope was completely al
tered. in 161> the Prussian Field Mar
stul Blucher, the savior of Wellingtoi
at Vaterloo, and whotn abbody like
because of his rudeness and brutality
was put on the retired 1i't. Di?heart
cued by his remOval and teduce!d t
Inaction and 'bscurity, he left l3erli
and went to reside in his castle sit1l
ated in Pom iania. Soon he fell"int
a deep melancholy, rendered more in
tense by ,dropsy and hyimmation c
the chest. A strange change in hi
1haracter took place6. That rough adl
tiler became timid, oveni poltroon. H
would net remain alone in the dark
noss; solitude threw him into singula
anguishes. His ,tate of health )vjs.rc
ported to the , king, who. estegmcd ai
loved him a 'great deal; Thd moiarel
having heard that 'at severat'ties thi
marshal had , expressed the wish o
tt+ng"im o' _ pp ore .bef )9 doied
reaolved to' ,si.t him.
Leaving Betlin in the moraing, th,
king of Prussia al rived in Krichlowit
early in the evening. Immediately it
was conducted to Blucher's room. ' Th
sick man, aced 74 years. was reclinin,
on a sofa placed before a large chim
ney, in which enormous logs of wo.
were burning. Their flames iliumi
nated the room and cast mobilo an.
- red reflections- on the features of th
old man wrapped up in bearskin. A
the entrance of his sovereign in hi
apartment, Bluoher tried to rise out c
respect for his august visitor, who pr(
vented him from doing so, The kin
took a chair and sat by the aide of th
marshal.
Blucher ordered to be left alon
with his master. When everyone ha
lef t the room he said:
"Sire, I have huibly requested you
malesty to come heire, in this castle0
Krieblowitz; rather than not see you
would have gone to Berlin mysell', al
though I am dying. I have a secret t
confide to your majesty, a terrible out
Will my king allow me to.speak?"
"Certainly, my dear marshal."
"Before listening to my narrativ,
sire, look at me well, Assure yourse,
that I am In the full possession of mi
senses and that I am not a lunatic
Sometim,es I believe to be on the verg

added he, drawing a gOld bracelet fror
%2 his pocket, "Bo, all Is true, all is rea
and I am sure of what I am saying.
"Listen to me, your majesty:"
"When, in ;1750, the Seven YearJ
War began mny father, who inhabite
his castle of Gross Renz~ow, sent me t
