Parls observed the centenary of Na- poleon Bonaparte's death with elabo- rate .ceremonies a few weeks ago. Amid all the pomp in honor of the one~ time arbiter of Europe another figure stood out in contrast—that of a woman of fifty, dressed in black, with a fine, open:face, lined by sorrow and the in- cessant effort to eke out a livelihood, a teacher in an ordinary elementary school near the Boulevard St. Michel. This poor teacher, now living i a tiny apartment with her cat and a few mea- ger possessiong, is the granddaughter | of Napoleon 1. Her father was the ille- gitimate son of Napoleon and Eleonore de 1a Plaigne, a maid of honor to Caro- line; Murat,’ Napoleon gave the boy the title of Count. Leon. Born in 1806, ."“Count Leon” died in 1881, after an ex- citing and feverish life, into which he crowded excessive gambling, many duels and love affairs and some mys- tleal meditations.. The count’s only daughter, Charlotte Leon, was born when herfgther was sixty years old. She began-life as a teacher in Algeria to support her widowed mother, to whom the count had left but small means of subsistence. After hard years of struggle on a.pittance she finally went to Paris, where she married a M. Mesnard, taking the name of Mme. Mesnard-Leon. Her husband is now dead and she lives alone, barely re- moved from want, meditating on the ‘strange destiny of her grandfather, the great emperor, of her father's wild and stormy life—and of her only son, who died for France at Rheims during the war. ?
