Brtooiavt,, Nov. 25.Rov. Dr. Tl
Dingo today tcffnn hia series of round
tho world mrinons through tho prccs,
tho first BUjjcct solectod being Lnok
now, Iudia. Tlio text chosen was Don
teronomy n; 19, "When thou shall
hesiego n city a long time in making
war against It to take it, thou shaltnot
destroy tho troes thoroof by forcing on
nx against tbom."
Tho awfulest thing in war is besiego
ment, for to thoworkof deadly weapons
. m.ua Hunger aim starvation and
piaguo, uoaiegotncnt is sometimes nuo
essary, but say toxt commands meroy
oven in that Tho fruit treos must bo
spared becauuo thoy afford food for man.
"Thou shalt not destroy the trees there
of by forcing an ax against thorn." But
in my recent journey round tho world
I found at Lucknow, India, tho romaius
of tho most merciless besicgement of
tho ages, and I proceed to toll yon that
story for four great reasons to show
yon what a horrid thing war is and to
mako yon all advocates for peace, to show
yon what gcmiino Christian character
is under bombardment, to put a corona
tion on Christian courage, and to show
you how splendidly good pcoplo die.
As our train glided into tho dimlv
lighted station I asked tho guard, "Is
this Lucknow?" and ho answered,
"Lucknow," at tho pronunciation of
which proper name strong omotious
rushed through body, mind and soul.
An lijewitncss.
Tho word is a synonym of suffering,
of cruolty, of heroism, of horror such as
is suggested by hardly any other word.
wo havo for 85 years been reading of
tho agonies thero endured and tho dar
ing doeds thero witnessed. It was my
great desire to havo somo 0110 who had
witnessed tbo soenes transacted in Luck
now in 1807 conduct us over tho place.
Wo found jnst tho man. Ho was a young
soldier at tho timo tho greatest mutiny
of tho ages broko out, and ho was put
with others insido tho residency, which
was a cluster of buildings making a
fortress in which tho representatives of
tho English government lived and
which was to bo tho sceno of an endur
ance and a bombardment tho story of
which poetry and painting and history
and secular and saorod e.loquenco havo
been trying to depict. Our escort not
only had a good momory of what had
happened, lint had talent enough to ro
hoarso tho tragedy.
In tho oarly part of 1857 all ovor Iu
dia tho natives wcro ready to break out
in robollion against all foreigners and
especially against tlio civil and mili
tary representatives of tho English gov
ernment. A half dozen causc3 aro mentioned
for tho feeling of discontent nnd insur
rection that was evidenced throughout
India. Tho most of theso causes wore
rnoro pretexts. Greased cartridges wcro
no doubt an oxasporatiou. Tlio groasu
ordorod by tho English government to bo
used on theso cartridges was taken from
oows or pigs, and grcaso to tho Hindoos
is unclean, and to bito theso cartridges
at tho loading of tho guns would bo an
olfenso to tho Hindoo's religion. Tho
loaders of tho Hindoos said that theso
greased cartridges wero only part of an
attempt by tho English government to
mako tho natives gfvo up their religion;
honco unbounded indignation was
arousod.
Anothoroausoof tho mutiny was that
another largo provinco of India had
been annexed to tho British ompiro,
and thousands of officials in tlio employ
of tho king of that provinco wtro thrown
out of position, nnd thoy wcro all ready
for trouble making.
Anothor cauiiQ was said to bo tho bad
Kovormnont oxoroiscd by somo EnglJsh
nflloinls in India.
Tho simple faot was that tho natives
of India woro conquered raco, and tho
English wero the conrjuorors, For 100
voars tho British scepter hail been wuv-
ed ovor India, ana tno jiniinns wnnieu
to break that 6coptor. TJiero never had
been any lovo or sympathy botwoon tho
iiiitivos of India and the Europeans.
Thero is none now.
Jioforo tlio timo of tho great mutiny
the English government risk! much
power in the hands of the jintivt. T-xi

many of thflin ware in gnvonniwital

"Call mo oarly," I said, "tomorrow

floor of which in other days had been
used as a banquoting hall, but then was
used as a hospital. At this part tho am
putations took placo, and all such pa
tients died. Tho boat was so groat and
tho food so insufficient that tho poor
follows conld not recovor from tho loss
of blood. Thoy all died. Amputations
wero performed without chloroform.
AH tho anaisthotics wero oxhaustod. A
fracturo that in other climates and un
der other circumstances would havo
como to easy convalescence hero proved
fatal. Yonder was Dr. Fayrer's houso,
who was surgeon of tho placo and is
now Qnoon Viotoria's doctor. This np
per room was tho officers' room, and
thoro Sir Henry Lawrence, our dear
coramaudor, was wounded. Whilo ho
sat thero a sholl struck tho room, nnd
somo ono suggested that ho lrad better
leavo tho room, but ho smiled and said,
'Lightning nover strikes twico in tho
samo place. ' Hardly had ho said this
when another sholl toro off his thigh,
and ho was carried dying into Dr. Fay-
ror's houso on tho other siuo of tho road.
Sir Henry Lawrence had been in poor
health for a long timo boforo tho mu
tiny.. Ho had been in tho Indian servico
for years, nnd ho had started for Eng
land to recover his health, but getting
as far as Bombay the English govern
ment requested him to remain at least
awhile, for ho could not bo spared in
such dangerous times. Ho camo hero to
Lucknow, and foreseeing tho siogo of
this residency had filled many of tho
rooms with grain, without which tho
residency would havo been obligod to
surrender. Thero wero also taken by
him into this residency rio and sugar
and charcoal and fodder fur tho oxen
and hay for tho hordes. But now, nt
tho timo when all tho pcoplo woro look
ing to hint for wisdom niid courago,
Sir Henry is dying."
Our escort describos tho nceno, nniquo,
tender, beantiful and overpowering, nnd
whilo I stood on tho very spot whero
tho sighs nnd groans of tho besieged
and lacorabid and broken hcartod met
tho whiz of bullets, and tho demoniac
hiss of bursting shell, and tho roar oi
batteries, my escort gavo mo tho partic
ulars. Tiled to Do Ills Doty.
"As soon as Sir Henry was told that
ho had not many hours to livo ho askod
tho chaplain to administer to him tho
holy communion. Ho felt particularly
anxious for the safety of tho women in
tho resldenoy, who, at any moment,
might bo subjected to tho savages who
howled around tho residency, their
breaking in only a matter of timo un
less ro-euforcomentH should como. Ho
would frequently say to those who sur
rounded his death ceuch: 'Savo tho la
dies. God liolp the poor women and
children I1 Ho gavo directions for tho
desperato defouso of tho place. Ho ask
ed forgiveness of all thoso whom ho
might unintentionally havo negloetod or
offended. Ho loft a mcesago for all his
friends. He forgot not to givo direction
for tho caro of ids favorito horse. Ho
charged tho officers, saying: 'By no
moans surrender. Make no treaty or
compromise with the desperadoes, DJo
fighting, ' Ho took charge of tho asylum
ho had cstablUhod for tho olilldmn of
soldiers. Ho gavo directions for his bur
ial, Miying: 'No nonsense, no fuss. Lot
mo be buried with tho men.' Ho dio
tatud his own epitaph, whloh I rend
nbovo his temb: 'Hero lies Henry Law
ruitiw, who tried to do his duty. May
the Lord havo mwoy on his soul.' Ho
said: 'I would llko to have a pusago of

from tho imii.y of God t'jnt wo woro i
not massacred soon after tho besicco
ment. 0 wcro resolved not to allow
oursolves to got into tho hands of thoso
dosperadocs. Yon must remember that
wo and all tho women had hoard of tho
butchery nt Cawnpur, nnd wo know
what dofoat meant. If unablo to hold
out any longur, wo would havo blown
oursolves up and nil gono out of liio to
gether. "
"Show mo," I said, "tho rooms whero
tho women nnd children stnid during
thoso uwful months." Then wo crossed
over nnd went down into tho cellar of
tho residency. With n shudder of hor
ror iudescribablo I eutorcd tho cellnrs
whero 623 womon and children had been
crowded until tho wholo floor was full.
I know tho exact number, for I counted
their names on tho roll. As ono of tho
ladies wrote in lior diary spoaking of
theso women sho said, "They lay upon
tho floor fitting into each other likobits
in a puzzle." Wivos had obtained from
thoir husbands tho promiso that tho hus
bands would shoot thorn rather than lot
them fall into tho hands of theso desper
adoes. Tho womon within tho resi
dency wero kept on tho smnllest allow
anco that would maintain life. No op
portunity of privacy. Tho death augol
and tlio birth nngcl touched wings ns
they passed. Flies, mosquitoes, vormin
in full possession of tho placo, and theso
women in moraontnry oxpoctation that
tho enragod savages would rush upon
thorn, in n violouco of which club nnd
sword and torch and throat cutting
would bo tho mildor forms.
Our escort told us again nnd again of
,ho brnvery of theso women. They did
not dospair. Thoj encouraged tho sol
diory. Thoy waited on tlio wounded and
dying iii tho hospital. They gavo up
their Btockiiigs for holders of tho grapo
sliot. Thoy solaced each other whou
their children died. "When n husband
or father foil, such prayers of sympathy
werO offerort as only women can offor.
Thoy endured without complaint, Thny
prepared their own children for burial.
They wcro inspiration for tho men who
stood nt thoir posts fighting till thoy
dropped.
The Guns of Ilcllvf.
Our escort told us that again nnd
again news had como that Ilnvclock and
Outrani wero on tho way to fetch these
besicgod ones out of their wrotchedncss.
They had rocoived 11 letter from Havolook
rolled up in n quill and carried in tin
mouth of n disguised messenger, nlettc
tolling them ho wuh ou the way, but the
next news wns that Haveloek hail been
aompallcd to retreat. It was constant
vacillation between hopo and despair.
But 0110 day thoy heard tho guns of ro
liof sounding nearer and nearer. Yet all
tho houses of Lunkuow wero fortresses
fillod with nrmed miscreants, and ovcry
stop of Haveloek and his army was con
tested firing from housetops, firing
from windows, firing from doorways.
I asked our friend if ho thought that
tho world famous story of a Scotch Inu
in her delirium hearing tho Scotch bag
pipes advancing with tho Scotch regi
ment was a true story. Ho said ho did
not know but that is was truo. Without
this man's tolling mo I knew from my
own observation that dolirium somo
times quickens somo of tlio. faculties,
and I rather think tho Scotch lass inliei
dolirium was tlio first to hear tho bag
pipes. I dcclino to beliovo that class of
pooplo who would llko to kill all the
poetry of tlio world and banish nil tho
fino sentiment. Thoy tell 11s tfmt Whit
tier's poem about Barbara Froitchio was
founded on n delusion, and that Long
fellow's poems immortalized tilings that
uovor ocourrod. Tho Bcotoh lass did
hoar tho slogan. I almost hoard it my
self as I stood insido tho residency whilo
my escort told of tho coming on of tho
Seventy-eighth highland regiment.
"Wero you present when Havolook
ramo In?" I askod, for I could suppress
the question no longer. His anuwer
came:
"I was not nt tho moment present, but
with somo other young follows I cow
soldiers dunning while two highland
pipers played, and I wild, 'What is nil
this excitement?' Thou wo canto up nnd
saw that Haveloek was in, and Outrani
was in, mid tlio rfgiinonlswriro pouring
In."
"Show us whero thoy omno In," I ox
claimed, for I knew that thoy did not
outer through the gatoof the roafdojioy,
that Mng Imnlii'l uplindilo U) Weji tho
uiurriorar out. "Horn it Is," ituswarl
my (tfooit. "Huru It is tlio oinbruniiio

had sern tha residency nt Lucknow tho
day beforo with a bolovcd missionary,
and ho told mo many interesting fnots
concerning tlio besiepoment of that
place, but this morning I had seen it in
company with one who in that nwful
1857 of tho Indian mutiny with ills own
firo had fooght tho besiegers, and with
his own cm had heard tho yell of liio
miscreants as they tried to storm tlio
wnlls, mid with his own eyes had wit
nessed n sci no of pang and sacrifico and
endurnnco nnd bereavement and prow
ess and rcsouo which has mado all this
Lucknow fortress nnd its surroundings
tho Mount Calvary of tho nineteenth
century.
Honors Tor tlio Hero.
On tlio following day, nbout four
miles from tho residency, I visited tho
gravo of Havolook. Tho sccnos of hard
ship and solf sacrifico through which ho
had passed wero too much for niortnl
endurnnco, nnd n fow dnys after Havo
look loft tha residency which ho had ro
lioved ho lay in a tent n-dying, while
his son, whom I saw in Loudon ou my
way hero, was roading to tlio old bora
tho consolatory Scriptures. Tlio telo
graph wires had told nil nations thnt
Havolook was sick unto death. Ho had
received tho messago of congratulation
from Queen Victoria over his triumphs
nnd lind been Knighted, nnd such n ro
ccption as England ncvor gavo to any
man sinoo Wellington camo back from
Waterloo awoitrd his return. But ho
will novor again sco his nativo land.
Ho has led his last nrmy and planned tho
last battlo. Yet ho is to gain another
victory. Ho declared it whou in hislait
hours ho laid to General Outrani: "I
dio happy and contonted. I havo for 40
yoars so ruled my lifo that when donth
camo I might fnco it without fear. To
dio is gain. " Indeed this was no now
sentimentality with him. He once stntcd
that in boyhood with four companions
ho was aconstotned to seok tho "seclu
sion of ono of tho dormitories for pur
poses of devotion, though certain in
thoso days of being branded ns Metho
dists and cantiug hypocrites. " Ho had
in early lifo been immersed in a Baptist
church. Ho acknowledged God in ovcry
victory nnd says in ono of his dispatches
that ho owes it "to tlio power of tho ICn
flold ride in British bauds, to British
pluck nnd to tho blessing of Almighty
God on a most righteous cause " IIo
was accustomed to spend two hours ov
cry morning in prnyer and Biblo read

o'clock ho arosa for purposes of religious
devotion at 0 o'olock, and if tlio army
was to march nt 0 o'clock ho aroso at 4.
Sir Henry Haveloek, tho son in

camo through Loudon invited throo of
tho liorocH of Lucknow to moot mo nt

In height Tho egg found among thu
bones, described by tlio soioutiflo French
man, was ns large as a two gallon jug,
an experiment proving that it would
hold tlio contents of six largo African
ostrieli eggs, or 118 common hen eggs.
Tho glunt moa, which is believed to

Zealand, was larger in point of weight
and bulk than tho eplornis, hut it only
stood 0 feet high, quito high enough,
however, when it is known that its
weight was not less than 1,000 pounds.
