Until September, 1813, in our second war with Eng-land, it seemed as if we would lose our hard-won inde-pendence. But then came the turning-point! BraveCaptain Perry, afterward Admiral, met an enemy battlefleet on Lake Erie, and by his victory encouraged ourpeople to go on fighting until our independence wasassured.

And, in the recent war, the most terrible the worldhas ever known, as yet scarcely over, after four yearsof the heart-breaking struggle, it at last seemed probablethat the Hun might accomplish his designs and thatthe Allied armies were to be crushed and defeated.
