Major-Gen. Barnes, Adjutant-General -to the forces, saw the enemy, and rode up to the Highlanders. He took off his hat, waved it in the air, and crying out, " Now, 92nd, fol- low me !" struck a spark which flew like electricity from file to 86 STORY OF THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO. [CHAP. X.
file. The Highlanders sprang from the ditch in which they were lying, and, while the bagpipes screamed the Camerons' Gather- ing, brought their bayonets to the level, and rushed forward. I3ack and back went the F...rench column. Once or twice the lead- ing companies endeavored to make a stand, but the charge of the Highlanders was irresistible, and they broke and fled till the shelter of a hedge-row gave them the opportunity of deploying. From behind that cover they threw in a volley, which did not ar- rest the assailants for a moment. Col. John Cameron, who com- manded, received indeed a desperate wound, which deprived him of all power to manage his horse, and being thrown heavily on Ids head, he died. But his followers, instead of being daunted by that circumstance, seemed but to gather from it an increase of fury.
