The procesr-vcrbal then proceeds to describe the encounter. It fays that In the MrM assault Prince Henri was hit in the right breast, though the weapon did not penetrate the thorax. On the strength of the reiort of the doctors the seconds decided that the combat must go on. The second avmult was stopped because the combatants came Into close quarters. In the third assault the Count of Turin was hit in the back of the right hand. but the wound was slight. In the fourth assault the umpire. Major lAt ntien. de clared that the sword of Prir.ce Henri lnt and stopped the engagement long enough to furnish the prince with a new weapon.

Immtdiately on the crossing of swords Prince Hrnrl vigorously pressed hi3 adverary. Th Ccur.t of Turin re treated to the limit of the ground, and then resuming the offensive touched his opponent. The third ard fourth assaults ended In long engagements within guard. The Temps pays that the wound in the abdotnr-n rf Prince Henri is serious, but not alarming.
