...courses on persistently in the elder heroes of the War. Hindenburg has majestically topped 80, Foch 77, and good "Papa" Joffre 76. Early, therefore, seemed the harvest which Death reaped, last week, in striking down at 66 perhaps the greatest soldier-Scotchman, Colonel - Douglas Haig, first Earl Haig (British creation), but 29th Laird of Bemerside (Scotch), and, from 1915 onward, Commander-in-Chief of all Britannia's armies in France, famed as "Field-Marshal Sir Douglas Haig."

...lives away from the world in the forest at Montfort-l'Amaury, concerning himself with the creation of music: for grown-ups his orchestral valse, his mocking Tziganes, his naughty I'Heure Espagnole; for children, his lovely Mother Goose suite and l'Enfant et les Sortileges?a happier balance than his contemporaries have found.
