73, 12. Bazaine sur Berlin . . . The young lady was following her grandfather’s suggestions: Marshal Bazaine threatening the center of Germany by leading his army towards Berlin; General Frossard, the south by invading Bavaria, and Marshal Mac- Mahon, the north by attacking the provinces extending along the Baltic Sea. — Bazaine (Achille), a Marshal of France (1811-1888), was court-martialed and condemned as a traitor for surrendering the city of Metz to the Germans.
