Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marston, or the Soldier and Statesman, Vol. 3 of 3 The troops and populace now rushed into the H6 tel de Ville, to meet and convey them to places of safety. I followed, with the same object, yet with some unaccountable feeling that I had a personal interest in the rescue. The halls and apartments were on the huge and heavy scale of ancient times, and I was more than once bewildered in ranges of corridors filled with the grim reliques of civic mag nificence, fierce portraits of forgotten men of city fame, portentous burghers, and mailed captains of train bands. The unhappy women were at length gathered from the different galleries through which they had scattered in their fright, and were mustered at the 'head of the principal entrance, or grand escalz'er, at whose foot an escort of the troops was drawn up for their protection.
