| | 34. The Diplomacy Of Georges Cadoudal Page 5 |
 | | Cadoudal rode his horse around these living breastworks, firing at twenty paces, sometimes his pistols, sometimes a musket, which he discharged, cast aside, and picked up again reloaded. |
 | | Suddenly Cadoudal appeared, erect, a pistol in each hand; it was the death of two men; two men fell. |
 | | Roland cast a last glance at the battlefield, sighed, and, waving a last farewell to Cadoudal, started at a gallop across the fields to await, on the road to Vannes, the wagon-load of wounded and the prisoners he was asked to deliver to General Hatry. |
