Whin be declared the French were whipped, It a I moat accrued aa If be were dwelling upon It Juat to keep bla courage tip. Hut the morrow brought the van guard of the Forty fourth, and the entire regiment waa In camp by mid day. Then came General Uraddock nd bla eacort of light hone, and the druma began Uie'Grenudlera' March, nd the arena waa gay and very cob orfuU I forgot my gloomy mood and buuahed with the beat of them. Two hour later, Colonel Dunbar and the forty-eighth marched lu, end there waa more cheering and high aptrlta. Now It did eeem aa If we aoon could be about the bualneaa of driving the French behind the Great lukca. The trtlllery, however did not come up end would not for another ten dnya but what oddaT llradilork woe wllb ua with bla two Invincible regiment. Even though their uulfurma made them conaplcuoua target a, the French were too weak to eppoae them. All that remained waa to march awlftly to Duqueane and fly our royal banner lo place of the Lillet, Then e would atilft our ttrcngth to the north and capture Magnra end Crown I'olnt, and teach the New dig lundera bow to fight, tn.ly hun dred and fifty mllea remained to be covered before France'a grip on the Ohio would he forever removed. Ah, but now we were In fine aplrlta thine flrat few dnya after llraililm k reached the creek. Ilia very auaterlty waa a guarantee of complete auiceaa. The colonlea were confident the fall of the enemy wna but uintter of dnya. Uraddock bad arranged to eend back the latent newa by meana of mounted expreaaea. And every Thurs day wenlcrn hound niull-rlder wui to atari from rhlladvlphla to over take the army. I could vlalnn the arrival of our express and the enthu slaim our bulletins would arouae when read aloud at every hostel. And much good news wns brought by Uraddock and bis staff. A lurge delegation of Catnwbna and ('hero keea were to meet men from Hie Long Hunts at Winchester and provide ua with an overwhelming red force. The Catawbaa alone were to send ns a hundred end fifty warriors. As a re suit of the Winrheater council our camp would be overrun with red al lies. But do Indiana came to Join ua. Croghnn'a belts to the lake tribes brought ua neither Shawnee, Twlght wee, Wsndut or I'luiikushaw. Hut, while trifle disappointed. ' renlty did not matter. If they would not fight with as then aurely they would not fight agulnat ua. They were sim ply waiting nntll It was definitely de cided who waa to be the winner. It they refused to participate In active wnrfnre, then en much the leas would our efforts be lo smooth them down, The French were whipped. We needed no Indiana to aid us.

When we marched It would be lo three di visions, under llulket, young Horatio Gates and Dunbar. What bad surprised me was the number of while women In ramp. I counted thirty wives of soldiers.

After our first high spirits bad subsided a bit, we began to notice something else that might become very serious. The regulars, upon whom Uraddock de pended almost exclusively were fulling III In large numbers. They had been herded on transports and bsd been deprived of fresh provisions. Meat was the principal Hem of food on the creek end It waa oversalted. The result might have been foreseen. The coming of (he army brought many wondamen flocking lo (he creek, and I began (o meet old acquaintances who had never heard me called any tiling except 'liiucir I'.rona. After a day or so they would slip away while others would lake their place to ob serve silently end form opinions. I frequently saw General Uraddock walking about the camp with hla of ficers, nnd was shocked to observe he looked worried and discouraged. There was much muttering end complaining among the provincials. The com mander, being a rigid drill master. InelMted (hul (he provincials be worked dully and made (o go through the manual with fine precision. The provincials were alow and slovenly at maneuvers and aroused the general's dlagust and contempt. Thla aoon he came generally known and waa hotly resented.

Kngland had failed to find any merit In our rifles, although these typically American weapons resulted from long experience In forest-hunt-Ing and fighting, where the fear of Indians called for minimum amount of noise and the maximum of ac curacy, and where powder and lead were so precious that ' small bore, long barrel piece waa the ouly gun man could carry any distance. A sergeant was mildly curious shout the little hinged box In the stock of the gun where I kept (he greased patches of linen. I proudly explained (he virtue of (be patch, and be Impatiently urged: "You're proper mno. Put away thnt piece and enlist and learn bow to fight." "I am to serve aa acout." "You're master dark of akin for an Englishman," be remarked, hla dull gur.e auddenly growing suspicious. "My people were English, I was born In Virginia." "You're black enough for French man." "I was taken for Frenchman at Duquesne this spring." He grunted and walked away. I had forgotten him end waa starting to visit the Iroquois camp when babel of voices from the direction of (he parade ground attracted my at tention. A score of soldiers, released from drill, were bearing down on me In very buslnesrllke manner. My acquaintance, the sergeant, was lead ing them. They grouped around me and the sergeant said! "We believe you're spy from tbe French." "Then report It to your superiors. fiut the man who calls me epy la liar." I dropped my long rifle In the hollow of my left arm and swung It about and enlarged tbe circle, and warned: "It'll be eaay for you men (o murder me. but I'll take at leaet one of yon with me. If you honestly believe me a spy, report me. But bands off." Tbe fellows Iscked nothing In cour age and I believe they would have rlrked closing In on me If not fot tbe arrival of horseman, lie looked scarcely out of bis teens, although only a year younger than L or twenty- three. The horse, skillfully bandied, swept a cleared space before me, and the rider sternly demanded: "What's this confusion meant I am Colonel Wsshlngton, aide de camp to General Uraddock." Of course 1 recognised him tbe mo ment I glimpsed him. Tbe sergeant humbly explained: "We believe, air, he la a French spy, We came to take btm before our cap tain." He dismounted and took sharp look at my dark face, and after mo ment cried: "Hal Mr. Brund. of Alexandria. Webster lirond, whom I bsven't sees these three years. What's this about you being a spy?" "It's their Imagination, Colonel. reported to (he council In Alexandria, after playing spy for the English at Duquesne. General Braddock himself will remember me." "Then It was yoo who was before the council," be cried and tbrust out bis band. "I arrived after yon bed left and In the confusion I did Dot bear your name." Turning to the soldiers be raid: "Thla man Is a loyal subject of bis majesty and he baa done the king and the colonlea excellent aervlce. Be more csutlous another time." They were glad (o withdraw.

I'm hungry for newa of the country, and I've had do chance to talk wlih hla excellency. Governor Dinwiddle. I was Indis posed and tanly lo rejoining the army." So I repeated In detail, and various things Braddock had not bad the pa Hence to listen to.
