Sunday Battles In History.
Some of the fiercest engagements of
the present war have been fought on
Sunday, the so-called day of rest, for the
German seems to like that day for a
bombing raid on some defenseless
town, as well as for much bigger oper
ations at the front, possibly on ac
count of the old adage about the bet
ter the dav the better the deed.
The fiercest of the battles In the
Wars of the Roses was actually fought
on Palm Sunday, observes Bondon An
swers. This was the Battle of Tow
ton In 1461, and ten years later the
Battle of Barnet was fought on East
er Sunday. Ramlllies was fought on
Whitsunday, 1708.
Both Bull's Run and Shlloh, in the
American Civil war, were fought on
Sunday. It was on Sunday that Well
ington issued that famous order, "CI
udad Rodrlgo must be carried by as
sault tills evening."
A glad Sunday for the British em
pire was that "loud Sabbath" when
Welllnrton defeated Nanoleon at Wa
terloo In the last attempt on the part
of one man to dominate the world.
