+
+<p><br /><br />ot many years ago a terrible
+battle was fought between the
+soldiers of Napoleon Bonaparte
+and the Austrians, at a small
+village in Italy. The Austrians
+were severely beaten, and the houses of the
+village were set on fire by the cannon, and
+all burned or torn down; the poor villagers
+were driven from their homes, and thousands
+of soldiers were killed or wounded, and left
+to die on the ground; the Austrians tried to get away from the
+French, but the furious soldiers of Napoleon pursued them with
+their bayonets, or trampled them to death with their horses.</p>

+</div>
+
+<p>In the French army was a regiment of soldiers who were called
+<i>guards</i>; they were all dressed alike, in blue coats and white
+pantaloons, trimmed with crimson and gold: they were terrible
+fellows to fight, and their enemies were very much afraid of
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_2" id="Page_2">[Pg 2]</a></span>
+them, or they were always in the thickest of
+the battle, clearing their way with the points of
+their bayonets. While this regiment was pursuing
+the Austrians, near the burning village,
+one of the Guards, an old man, saw a sweet
+little girl who could scarcely walk; her papa
+and mama had been driven from their homes,
+and her papa, who carried her in his arms, was
+killed by the soldiers. Mary, for that was her
+name, held up her little hands crying bitterly,
+as she lay among the killed and wounded; and
+the Old Guard, who was a brave but kind soldier,
+pitied her, and took her in his arms, and
+when the battle was ended, carried her to his
+tent, and calling his comrades together, told them
+of the little girl he had found; and no one knowing
+who she was, or who her parents were, they
+called her Mary, the Child of the Regiment, and
+agreed to take care of her as well as they could.
+Poor little Mary, she had no mama to undress her at night, and
+make her a little bed, but the good old Guard, gave her some
+of his supper and laid her down on some straw, for the soldiers
+have no other beds in their tents; and after laying his coat
+over her to keep her warm, and his haversack under her
+head, she sobbed awhile, and fell asleep to forget the scenes of
+that dreadful day. The next morning the old Guard awoke
+little Mary, and washed her face, and combed her hair as well
+as he could, for he had never taken care of a child in his life,
+and was almost afraid to touch her with his hard and rough
+hands, which he thought only fit to shoulder arms or charge
+bayonet with; and after taking some dried meat and hard bread
+for breakfast, he took her out to let her see the soldiers: they
+were delighted with Mary, and many of them ran to take her
+up in their arms, but she liked the Old Guard best, and wanted
+to be with him, for she was afraid of their glittering muskets,
+as she remembered how terrible they looked only the day
+before, when the noise of their guns, and deafening hurrahs
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_3" id="Page_3">[Pg 3]</a></span>
+had almost frightened her to death; but they were kind to her,
+and she afterwards loved them very much, for she said the
+whole of the twenty-first regiment was her father, as they called
+her their child, and took care of her.</p>
+

+<img src="images/p004b-illus.jpg" width="73" height="109" alt="rambling" title="" class="splitlb" />
+</div>
+
+<p>The old Guard then took little Mary to live with him, and
+she learned to sew and play with her doll, which he had bought
+for her; and delighted in filling his canteen with water, and
+polishing his epaulettes; she would also sing and dance with
+him; which pleased him very much, for he loved no body but
+her; as he was a great many miles from his home, and had
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</a></span>
+marched all the way with
+the army.</p>
+
+<p>At other times, when the
+old Guard was not with
+her, she amused herself
+by rambling through the
+fields gathering wild flowers,
+or climbing the mountains
+to see the army in
+the valley below.</p>
+
+<p>At length the regiment was ordered
+home, and took little Mary with
+them. She suffered many hardships
+in travelling so great a journey, for
+sometimes she had to walk a long
+way, or ride on a baggage waggon,
+which was no better than a cart; and
+in crossing the Alps, they frequently
+slept on the cold ground, without any
+fire or even their suppers; and as the
+mountains were covered with snow
+and ice, poor little Mary passed many
+bitter nights and tedious days; and often thought of the peaceful
+and happy home she had lost for ever; but the old Guard
+was kind to her, and often carried her on his back or in his
+arms a great way: and after many lone weeks, during which
+time a great number of the poor soldiers died from suffering and
+toil, they arrived in France.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 300px;">
+ <a name="p005-illus.jpg" id="p005-illus.jpg"></a>
+ <img src="images/p005-illus.jpg" width="300" height="330" alt="A soldier and Mary dancing" title="" />
+</div>
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p>By this time she had grown up to be a fine girl; she always
+lived with the regiment, and had almost forgotten her papa and
+mama, and the battle. The old Guard had never tried to find
+any of her friends, for he thought they were all killed when the
+village was destroyed; at any rate nobody had ever enquired
+for her; and they had no hopes of finding out who she was or
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</a></span>
+who her parents were. While the regiment stayed in France
+they were quartered near a large city, where Mary used to buy
+fruit and flowers for herself, and many things to please the Old
+Guard. She was delighted with the town, and wished to live
+there very much; upon which the regiment agreed to send her
+to a boarding school, where she soon became acquainted with
+many little girls who were amiable and kind, and much amused
+with her stories about the army, particularly the battle and her
+journey across the Alps.</p>
+
+<div>
+<img src="images/p006a-illus.jpg" width="100" height="124" alt="Little Mary in a frame" title="" class="splitlt" />
+<img src="images/p006b-illus.jpg" width="55" height="60" alt="Bottom decoration of frame" title="" class="splitlb" />
+</div>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">[Pg 6]</a></span>During Mary's stay in the
+town she became acquainted
+with a school-boy named
+Rodolph, who was in the
+same class with her. He
+was a sprightly, daring little
+fellow, and on one occasion
+threw himself between Mary
+and a mad ox that was rushing
+furiously along the street,
+and would probably have
+gored her to death but for
+the courage of Rodolph, who
+succeeded in rescuing her.
+From this time Mary became
+much attached to him, and they frequently
+took many pleasant rambles together, and
+the Old Guard called him a little corporal,
+and said he might one day be an officer.</p>
+
+<p>Rodolph was the son of a poor widow, who
+had lost her husband in battle, and was in
+consequence reduced in circumstances, and
+scarcely able to support herself and send him to school; but more
+misfortunes came upon them, and they were at a loss what to
+do to save themselves from the poor-house. Rodolph was proud,
+and could not bear the thought of poverty and want, and was
+determined to do something to relieve the distress of his mother.</p>
+
+<p>One day, while occupied with these thoughts, the fife and drum
+of a recruiting party met his ears, and as a large sum of money
+was offered to those who would join the army, and a military
+life (as related by little Mary) he thought would be the most
+likely to suit him, he stepped forward to the ranks, took his gun,
+held up his head, and became a soldier in a minute.</p>
+
+<div>
+<img src="images/p007a-illus.jpg" width="200" height="103" alt="Mary and" title="" class="splitrt" />
+<img src="images/p007b-illus.jpg" width="87" height="190" alt="a guard" title="" class="splitrb" />
+</div>
+
+<p>Rodolph rushed home to present the money to his mother,
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">[Pg 7]</a></span>
+who was almost distracted when
+she heard what he had done; as
+the regiment he had joined was
+ordered into immediate service,
+and he would soon be in all the
+hardships and horrors of war, from
+which she never expected he would
+return.</p>
+
+<p>War is a horrible thing, and Rodolph
+before long was seen upon
+the field of victory; here he behaved
+so bravely that he was made
+a corporal, and afterwards a sergeant;
+and at another hard fought
+battle attracted the notice of his
+officer, and was promoted to the
+rank of Lieutenant.</p>
+
+<div class="figleft" style="width: 75px;">
+ <a name="p008-illus.jpg" id="p008-illus.jpg"></a>
+ <img src="images/p008-illus.jpg" width="75" height="135" alt="Side decoration" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>But good fortune was in store
+for the young soldier, in a way that
+he would never have thought of;
+it happened that the wife of the colonel of the regiment to
+which Rodolph belonged, who had followed her husband to the
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_8" id="Page_8">[Pg 8]</a></span>
+field of battle, was surprised one day
+while alone, by two stragglers from the
+enemy who were proceeding to rob and
+perhaps murder her; when very fortunately
+Rodolph and another soldier who
+happened near the spot, and drawing their
+swords, attacked the robbers boldly; Rodolph's
+comrade however received
+a severe wound, and he was therefore
+left alone to defend himself
+and the lady against the ruffians;
+but Rodolph was fearless and fought
+desperately; he wounded the two
+villains, and conveyed the lady in
+safety to the tent of the officer.</p>
+
+<p>The colonel scarcely knew how to show his gratitude;
+he gave Rodolph a large sum of money
+which he immediately sent home to his mother,
+and gave him also the command of a company of
+soldiers, after raising him to the rank of captain.</p>
+
+<div>
+<img src="images/p009a-illus.jpg" width="200" height="181" alt="Mary" title="" class="splitlt" />
+<img src="images/p009b-illus.jpg" width="81" height="114" alt="rambling" title="" class="splitlb" />
+</div>
+
+<p>How happy was Rodolph when he was thus raised from a
+common soldier and many hardships, to independence and honour,
+notwithstanding all the dangers and sufferings he had encountered.
+Another officer was, however, very much displeased
+with the good fortune which had attended one whom he considered
+to be so much below him, and took every opportunity to
+insult and injure him. Rodolph bore this for some time with
+great patience, but at last the gentleman became so ugly and
+troubled him so much, that he could not bear it any longer; and
+the consequence was, though he knew it was very wrong, that
+he was forced to fight a duel, or else be looked upon as a coward
+by the rest of his companions in arms.</p>
+
+<p>They at length met to fight, and Rodolph not wishing to harm
+his enemy, fired his pistol in the air, but the other taking advantage
+of Rodolph, severely wounded him. It was sometime before
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_9" id="Page_9">[Pg 9]</a></span>
+Rodolph recovered, but he did at
+last, and by earnestly entreating the
+officers to save the man who had thus
+acted treacherously towards him, he
+escaped a severe punishment which
+he otherwise would have met with.
+The noble conduct of Rodolph filled
+him with gratitude; he asked his forgiveness,
+which was instantly granted,
+and they became the best of friends.</p>
+
+<div class="figright" style="width: 75px;">
+ <a name="p010a-illus.jpg" id="p010a-illus.jpg"></a>
+ <img src="images/p010a-illus.jpg" width="75" height="122" alt="Side decoration" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>After the war was over, the army
+returned to France, and great was the
+joy of Rodolph at the thought of once
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_10" id="Page_10">[Pg 10]</a></span>
+more beholding his mother, and to
+think he had now the means of
+rendering her comfortable for life.
+On entering the town he flew to
+the home of his parent, for he had
+been away a long while; and he
+was so altered with his splendid
+uniform, bright sword and epaulettes,
+that his mother scarcely
+knew him; but her joy at once
+more seeing him, knew no bounds.</p>
+
+<p>Rodolph had been home but a
+short time, when the thoughts of
+his little companion would not let
+him remain long without trying
+to see her. He repaired immediately
+to the school, but all were
+strange faces, and nobody seemed to know him or little Mary
+either. He next visited the camp, but found the regiment had
+gone back to Italy a long time since, and Mary of course was
+with them. Poor Rodolph returned, with bitter disappointment,
+and determined to join the army again, and die on the field of
+battle. With this resolution, after taking an affectionate leave of
+his mother, he returned to tent, and was soon again amid the roar
+of cannon and the clash of arms; for Rodolph had been so long
+surrounded by danger and the busy scenes of a soldier's life, that
+the peaceful home of his boyhood seemed wearisome to him.</p>

+
+<p>We now return to little Mary, who was at school, making
+friends of every one she became acquainted with, and carefully
+studying her lessons, and most always at the head of her class.
+On entering the room one morning, and looking round, she
+saw that Rodolph was not there. He staid away the next day,
+and the next; when Mary heard he had been seen in company
+with some recruiting soldiers, and she trembled for fear he had
+gone with them. She immediately hastened to the camp, and
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[Pg 12]</a></span>
+almost the first thing she saw was Rodolph,
+with his musket shouldered, and the perspiration
+streaming down his cheeks, while
+the rough, harsh voice of an old corporal
+ordered him instantly to his quarters.</p>
+
+<p>Mary waved her hand to him, but he did
+not see her. The tears rolled down from
+her eyes, as she turned from him&mdash;for she
+knew the hardships he would have to suffer&mdash;and
+hurrying home, threw herself in
+the arms of the Old Guard, and wept as
+though she had lost her only friend. The
+next day she heard of his departure, and
+went to her studies, with the hope that he
+might return and spend some happy hours
+with her once more.</p>
+
+<p>After the regiment had stayed a long-time
+in France, it returned to Italy again; and
+coming to a beautiful village, the Old Guard
+told Mary it was the place where the battle
+was fought, and showed her the place where
+he found her. Mary could not remember the
+spot nor any thing else which she saw, for
+it was a long while ago, and she was a very
+little girl at that time. The houses which
+had been burned down were all built up
+again, and the little boys and girls were all
+playing about as though nothing had ever
+happened. On the arrival of the soldiers, they all ran to look
+at the Guards and hear the drums.</p>

+
+<p>It soon became known that a young lady was with the regiment,
+and the story of her and the Old Guard was told to almost
+every one, and that she once lived in that beautiful village, and
+was found on the battle-field and carried off by the French soldiers.
+It was not long before the story of little Mary was told
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13">[Pg 13]</a></span>
+to a lady, who lived in a beautiful mansion or villa near the
+quarters of the regiment. Her husband, who was an officer, was
+killed in battle, and her little child lost in the crowd of people
+and soldiers who were trying to save themselves, on that terrible
+day the French soldiers came to fight the Austrians. The dead
+body of her husband was found, but nothing was ever known of
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">[Pg 14]</a></span>
+the little child. The more she thought
+of the story of Mary the more she thought
+of her own little girl; and ordering her
+carriage directed it to be driven to the
+camp; where she found the tent of the
+Old Guard, and inquired for little Mary.
+When the lady saw her she was surprised,
+to see such a beautiful girl with
+the soldiers&mdash;for Mary was now a young
+lady, and had been many years with the
+regiment. She asked the Old Guard
+many questions concerning the battle; and heard how
+she was found on the field, surrounded by cannons,
+and horses, and killed and wounded soldiers; that
+she was crying bitterly, and sat by the side of a dead
+officer. The lady heard the Old Guard, and wept while he was
+telling the story, for she began to think that Mary was her long
+lost little girl. But when the Old Guard brought the dress, and
+a necklace and locket which she had on her neck, all of which
+he had carefully kept, and showed them to the lady, she cried
+for joy, and clasped Mary in her arms; for it was indeed her little
+Mary; and she kissed her over and over again. The dress
+was the same she had worn on the morning of the battle, and
+the necklace was a present from her papa, the officer who was
+killed; and the letters on it were for her name, which was
+Mary St. Clair. The Old Guard was surprised and delighted to
+know that little Mary was an officer's daughter, and that her
+parents were so rich and great; but the tears came in the old
+soldier's eyes when he thought she must leave him; and Mary
+could not bear the thought of parting with him forever. But
+Mrs. St. Clair, Mary's mother, was determined they should not
+be separated, when she heard how kind the Old Guard had been
+to her; and, after procuring his discharge, invited him to live
+with them. The party at length set out for the villa, and the
+soldiers of the Guards took leave of her with tears in their eyes,
+and rushed from the ranks to kiss her for the last time.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_15" id="Page_15">[Pg 15]</a></span></p>

+</div>
+
+<p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Mary was delighted
+with her ride, but more
+pleased with her beautiful
+home, and the splendid
+apartments, and the
+costly furniture. Mary
+was immediately introduced
+to many young ladies and gentlemen, and soon became
+one of the liveliest and most beautiful women in Italy. The
+Old Guard dressed himself in his best uniform, which he would
+ <span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_16" id="Page_16">[Pg 16]</a></span>
+never exchange for any other dress: for although Mrs. St. Clair
+wanted to have him dress like a gentleman, he always refused,
+saying he had always lived and was determined to die a soldier.
+Not long after this, a great Ball was given by some of the
+nobility, and all the officers of the army, far and near, were
+invited. The assembly was brilliant, and imposing; the bright
+uniforms and gay dresses glittered by the light of chandeliers,
+and music and festivity seemed to delight them all. As Mary
+was leaning on the arm of the Old Guard, she noticed a young
+captain of infantry continually gazing on her, whose face appeared
+familiar. He stepped forward and mentioned her name, and in
+an instant they were in each other's arms; it was Rodolph.
+The wars were ended, and in travelling about the country, he
+had accidentally received an invitation. As soon as Mary entered
+the room, he remembered her, and after making himself known,
+enjoyed her society for the evening. The Old Guard died at the
+villa, and Mary and Rodolph were married, and lived at the village
+the rest of their lives.</p>

+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or

+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by

+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive

+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal

+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
