As it was, Suleiman saw his main force, still nearly 50,000 strong, scatter over the Rhodope mountains; many of them reached the Aegean Sea at Enos, whence they were conveyed by ship to the Dardanelles. He himself was tried by court-martial and imprisoned for fifteen years . The Russians devised skilful moves for capturing this force.

Lloyd, trembling and weakened by his long fast, tottered out, assisted by a soldier on each side of him. They took him before the Captain, but could get nothing out of him but: "For God's sake, sir, don't have me shot, don't have me shot!" The Captain, utterly disgusted with him, sent him under escort to Division Headquarters for trial by court-martial, charged with desertion under fire.

General Burriel, the commandant of the city, summoned a court-martial, and in spite of the protests of the American consul, condemned to death at the first sitting four of the passengers, General W. A. C. Ryan, an Irish patriot and three Cubans. They were shot on the morning of November 4.

Fort Bicêtre is still in Federal hands, but the garrison is said to have exhausted its ammunition. Bergeret gave the order for burning the Tuileries.

He was still in the prime of youth and in fine health. In Spain his family is aristocratic and influential, and could have protected him from the consequences of a quixotic court-martial. Martinez knew that resistance was utterly hopeless.

"When the day of trial came," pursued Mr. Walsingham "Don't forget Admiral Dashleigh," said Mr. Beaumont. "No; who can forget him that knows him?" said Walsingham: "a warm, generous friend, open-hearted as he is brave he came to Captain Walsingham the day before the court-martial was to sit.

The papers were certainly disappointing; and that is doubtless the reason why, after examining them on March 19th, he charged Réal "to take secret cognizance of these papers, along with Desmarest. One must prevent any talk on the more or less of charges contained in these papers." The same fact doubtless led to their abstraction along with the dossier of the proceedings of the court-martial.
