Alice took him away, and we were left with the horrid Archibald. "Now," said Oswald, "I won't break my word, no more will the rest of us. But we won't speak another word to you as long as we live." "Oh, Oswald," said Dora, "what about the sun going down?" "Let it jolly well go," said Dicky in furiousness. "Oswald didn't say we'd go on being angry for ever, but I'm with Oswald all the way.
The special correspondent of the London "Times," observing the fighting from the Russian side, described its furiousness and the ever-increasing resistance of the Austro-Germans as follows: "From an observation point eighty feet above the ground in the swaying foliage of a huge oak, a few versts distance from the battle field, I obtained an extraordinary view of the country and of the Russian artillery preparation.

Their chief remaining vices appeared to me to be indolence, duplicity, and covetousness."
