America, England and other nations became in time interested, and more or less officially contributed men, money and provisions » to the cause. Lord Byron (an Englishman who wrote immortal poetry and was In every other respect a cheap notoriety seeker) loudly pro- claimed his intention to devote his life, his sword and his pen to the freeing of Greece. He accordingly went to the scene of the war, spent most of his time sea-bathing, flirting and writing verse, and somehow managed to miss the fighting. He died of indigestion, but not before his poems had still further stirred up the jpublic mind in Greece's behalf. | A Greek republic was formed. Then, instead of preparing further de- ‘\fense against Turkey, the patriots at once began quarrelling among them- |selves and started civil war, The Turks swooped down on the helpless land and again conquered it. But the Powers of Europe interfered, and after forcing the Sultan to liberate the oft-tortured country, formed a Greek king- ,dom, with a foreign king on the throne. Greece was thus freed by outside |help, and Turkey's fear of the powers insured {t henceforth a sort of “pro- tected independence. | But Marco Borzaris, the man who perhaps did more than any or all | others to accomplish this end, fought without reward and died long before | the hour of final victory.
