Vardon, and I walked on. Caps, shoes, etc. , were lying by the way- [ 109 ] J O U R N A li side, and there were patches of bare earth which we did not immediately recognise as so many graves, common or solitary. One was open, and the greater part of a skeleton ex- posed; this seems to have excited a proper feeling, and many of the nearest graves were secured by heaps of stones from the animals which had uncovered it. The coimtry became more hilly and varied. About three mUes from the Cross Road...s, the greater part having been a gradual ascent, we came to a village, where from the Church Tower Buonaparte, as we were informed, di- rected the attack upon the Prussians. Here, by advice of the peasants, we left the car- riages which were to proceed to Sombref, and wait for us at a house which they called Sa- lade, imless that were the name of the person who keeps it, one of the coachmen saying that if we should not be satisfied with our enter- tainment there, we might cut off his head. The young man who now guided us had been carried with his father before Buonaparte to give intelligence.
