The porch of theEnglish Church was destroyed, several rooms of houses wrecked, andsplinters and flying fragments of brick and rock kept all who movedabroad in a state of suspense and mental anxiety. No! not _all_. Therewas one imperturbable Scot who occupied a house between the Naval gunsand the Boer position, who watched the havoc played by the shells in hishouse or garden, and occasionally applauded with the remark, "Aye, aye!Lord, man, that wuz a hummin'-bird damned weel hatched!" [Illustrat...ion: FACSIMILE OF PAGE OF NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN LADYSMITHDURING THE SIEGE. ] On the 21st an inhuman action defaced the ordinary programme of warfare. As before said, the Town Hall had been turned into a hospital for sick, and this, by reason of its conspicuous clock-tower with the red flagflying above it, made a convenient mark for the shots of the enemy. Inspite of all remonstrances, the Boer commandant proceeded to batter theplace with shell after shell, with the result that on one occasion thewing of the hall was destroyed, fortunately without loss of life, and onanother, a shell breaking through the roof, some nine poor patients werewounded and one killed.
