At
that
instant
,
too
,
a
messenger
arrived
to
say
that
the
left
attack
had
been
repulsed
;
and
I
was
just
beginning
to
congratulate
myself
,
believing
that
the
affair
was
over
for
the
present
,
when
,
to
our
horror
,
we
perceived
our
men
who
had
been
engaged
in
the
right
defence
being
driven
towards
us
across
the
plain
,
followed
by
swarms
of
the
enemy
,
who
had
evidently
succeeded
at
this
point
.
Ignosi
,
who
was
standing
by
me
,
took
in
the
situation
at
a
glance
,
and
issued
a
rapid
order
.
Instantly
the
reserve
regiment
around
us
,
the
Greys
,
extended
itself
.
Again
Ignosi
gave
a
word
of
command
,
which
was
taken
up
and
repeated
by
the
captains
,
and
in
another
second
,
to
my
intense
disgust
,
I
found
myself
involved
in
a
furious
onslaught
upon
the
advancing
foe
.
Getting
as
much
as
I
could
behind
Ignosi
's
huge
frame
,
I
made
the
best
of
a
bad
job
,
and
toddled
along
to
be
killed
as
though
I
liked
it
.
In
a
minute
or
two
--
we
were
plunging
through
the
flying
groups
of
our
men
,
who
at
once
began
to
re-form
behind
us
,
and
then
I
am
sure
I
do
not
know
what
happened
.
All
I
can
remember
is
a
dreadful
rolling
noise
of
the
meeting
of
shields
,
and
the
sudden
apparition
of
a
huge
ruffian
,
whose
eyes
seemed
literally
to
be
starting
out
of
his
head
,
making
straight
at
me
with
a
bloody
spear
.
But
--
I
say
it
with
pride
--
I
rose
--
or
rather
sank
--
to
the
occasion
.
It
was
one
before
which
most
people
would
have
collapsed
once
and
for
all
.

Seeing
that
if
I
stood
where
I
was
I
must
be
killed
,
as
the
horrid
apparition
came
I
flung
myself
down
in
front
of
him
so
cleverly
that
,
being
unable
to
stop
himself
,
he
took
a
header
right
over
my
prostrate
form
.
Before
he
could
rise
again
,
I
had
risen
and
settled
the
matter
from
behind
with
my
revolver
.
Shortly
after
this
somebody
knocked
me
down
,
and
I
remember
no
more
of
that
charge
.
When
I
came
to
I
found
myself
back
at
the
koppie
,
with
Good
bending
over
me
holding
some
water
in
a
gourd
.
"
How
do
you
feel
,
old
fellow
?
"
he
asked
anxiously
.

I
got
up
and
shook
myself
before
replying
.
"
Pretty
well
,
thank
you
,
"
I
answered
.
"
Thank
Heaven
!
When
I
saw
them
carry
you
in
,
I
felt
quite
sick
;
I
thought
you
were
done
for
.
