It was at the end of July, 1792, that the manitesto announcing the plans of Prussia and Austria reached Paris. The people were furious at the threats em bodies in the manifesto. Danton. with the lionlike head, the terrible frowning brow, gave out the fearful words, ‘‘we must strike or be stricken.” The day of horror* began at 6 o’clock in the morning. Of all the troops of the king, only the Swiss guard re mained faithful. These defended the palace and killed and wounded more than a thousand of the mob.An onlook er of the horrors of the day young man named Napoleon Bonaparte who afterward declared that the Swiss guard would have won the day had they been better commanded The Swiss guards perished almost to a man. The mob had not yet tasted so much blood as to be rabid against the livers of woman. One account says: “Madame Campman, the Princess of Tarente and a few other ladies were saved from slaughter by a band of men whose hands were still gory, and who said. Respite to the woman! Do not dishonor the nation!’ They were escorted safely to a private house; but they had to walk over several dead bodies, to see ^ murder going on around them to find i their dresses trailing in pools of blood, j and to see a band of hideous carrying the head of Mandat (com- n: ondat of the national guard) on a a pike,” The month of August is also notable entered the bridal party, to the strains of Mendelssohn’s wedding march, in the following manner; the ushers, Mes srs, Edwin, Floyd Kerr and Henry ScoLt, bruthers^f the bride, and the bridesmaids.

Then came the dame of honor, Mi’k. C.

The ring bearers, little Miss Agnes White Scott attired in a dainty dress of yellow and white, preceded the .bride, carrying the ring in a yellow rose. The bride, entering on the arms of her father, R W. Scott, wore a hand some suit o± blue French serge, with hat and gloves to match, and carried bride’s roses. Her only ornament be ing a brooch of amethyste and pearls, the gift of the groom. Then came the groom, enterning from the opposite side accompanied by his best man, Charles E.
