Throughout the entire campaign Miss Burns and Miss Paul counseled with one another on every point of any importance. This combination of the cool strategist and passionate rebel-each sharing some of the attributes of the other-has been a complete and unsurpassed leadership.

Lieutenant Grant, afterwards General Grant and President of the United States, was one of the first to enter the fortified position at the taking of Chapultepec.

With them came the year-old cooing babe who was to overthrow the heart and head of every being in the household, from princess down.
