Fortunately there were `others in Bithoor who understood the Brah- min s motives, and saw therein the germ of failure for their own plans, Nana Sahib was an exceedingly im- portant factor in the -success of the scheme that `meditated the re~_estab- lishment of the Mogul dynasty.- Re- cugnized by the Mahrattas, the great warlike race of "western India, as their leader, looked on as the pivot of Hindu support to. the ;Mohammedan- monarchy, it was -absolutely essential that he should captain the rebel gar- rison of`Cawnpore in a triumphant` march to Delhi, . For that reason a marriage distasteful to both had` al- ready been arranged between him and the Roshinara Begum. .For that _._rea- son he had travelled to many centers of disaifection during the months of March and April, winning, doubtful princes to the side of Bahadur Shah, by his tact and ready diplomacy.

For her unc1e s sake she kept her suspicions` to herself, but she suffered much in secret, and his dis-` tress mi"ght.Wel1 have moved a.man of finer character to sympathy. Each time she met.- the Nana he treated her with more apparent friendliness. She recoiled from his advances` as she might shrink from a venomous -snake. But he treated them well. A clear-' headed Brahmin,` to w-hom intrigue was the breath of life, was not likely" to make the mistake" of `being too pre- lcipitate `in his actions.` The wave of religious fanaticism sweeping over the land might recede as rapidly asits had risen. Muslim and Hindu, Path- an and Brahmin, hereditary. foes, who fraternized to-day, might be atveach other .sf throats to-moi-`row. `So the Nana was a courteous` jailer.

A _ Nana Sahib escorted `Mayne from` Meerut to Cawnpore becauseethe safe- guzarding of the Judicial Com_mission- er of Oudh was ,a strong card to play in that parlous game of .empire. As he travellc-d south reports reached him on every hand that nothing could now stop the spread of the Mutiny, and, with greater certainty. in his }1::2`..~" came 3 project that he would not have dared to harbor even :1 week earlier. - On the night of June. 4th, the `thousand men, women and chilaren who had` gathered behind the four- ,foot mud wall that formed the en- trenchment were left unmolested by the mutineers. _. During the 5th they watched the destruction, of their bun- galows, and knew` that the rebels were ipluntlering the city, robbing rich native merchants quite as readily as. they killed any Europeans who were not under Wheele`r s echarge. Late that day came Nana S~ahVib s letter`. It was a bitter disappoint- ment, but the valiant. never taste` death but on'ce, , and the Britons in Cawnpore .- resolved to teach the mu- tiueers that the men who had con-` quered them many times in the eld _con1.d.repeat the lesson again and again. - Nevertheless, Wheeler acted with method. His judgment was clear, if occasionally mistaken, and he had every reason to believe that the only attacks he would be called on to `repel would he made by~t'he bazaar mofb. ' Sir Hugh Wheeler having decided, most unfortunately ;as it happened, "against occupying the strongly-built magazine `on the -river `bank as at` refuge, had -constructed a imsy en- trenchment ona level plain close to the native lines. He was sure the sepoys would revolt. but he ibelicved they would hurryjo to Delhi, and he refused to give them an excuse for rebellion byseizing the magazine. ,Towarcls thewi of May he wrote .to Henry Lawrence at Lucknow for help, and Lawrence generously sent him fty men of the 32d. and half a bat-I tery of guns, though even this small[' force couldill be spared from the` capital_of- Oudh. Sir Hugh! made the further mistake of crediting Nanal Sah'ib s professions of loyalty. .~ Hei actually-entrusted the Treasury to the protection ofthe Nana s retainers, in spite of Lawrence s plainly-worded`; warning that the .Brahmin s recent- movements placed him under grave suspicion. V V Oddly enough, the high.-born Brah-I -min who now saw his hopes ofregal power in a fair way `towards realiza- _ tion placed one act of soldierly courtesy to his [credit before he made his name a synonym for all that is base and despicable in the eondut of warfare; He wrote a letter to Sir Hugh VWheeler `warning the gallant old general that he might expect to` be attackedforthwith. Perhaps it is straining `a. point to credit him with any sense of fair play. The letter m_a'y have been a last icker of re-p_ aspect for the power` of "Britain, and inspired by a haunting _ fear of the conseqnences if the_Mutiny failed. It is prdbable he wished to provide writ- ten proof of a plea that he was an unwilling agent in the clutch of a mu-! tinous army.
