His description of the splendid defence of Dixmude-in the face of overwhelming odds "by the ltrcloi parities under Admiral Iton.irc'h is here quoted:—"The defence of Dixmude wns undertaken by Admiral Itonarc'h, who had undei^ liis command seven thousand of those magnificent Itretoi aarines whose fame as a corps was firmly established in 1S70. For weeks I hey/held at bay no less than two German army corps. It would be difficult to decide where the heroism whicl uspired this epic defence originated, whether the commuuders inspired the men or the men their leaders. Down at'Dixmude the seven thousand marines of Admirai Krumre'h were fighting "ijrencbes up to their waists in water. They were in their elcmeent, as General Jof/re remarked, and they fought with the superb heroism of the seaman. One night, sifter day upon day in th i,jenches,,file tlermans, driving some half dozen prisoners before them, crept up to the French lines. Ilnman endura'nee has its limits. Suddenly one of the sleeping officers was awakened: 'Jiseerned the advancing mass tile weary sailors found the strength to fire: the attack was repulsed.
