While travelling through the classic realms of Greece some years
ago, sincerely desirous of discovering the lurking-place of a
certain war which the newspapers of my own country were describing
with some vividness, I chanced upon the base of the far-famed Mount
Olympus. Night was coming on apace and I was tired, having been led
during the day upon a wild-goose chase by my guide, who had assured
me that he had definitely located the scene of hostilities between
the Greeks and the Turks. He had promised that for a consideration
I should witness a conflict between the contending armies which in
its sanguinary aspects should surpass anything the world had yet
known. Whether or not it so happened that the armies had been
booked for a public exhibition elsewhere, unknown to the talented
bandit who was acting as my courier, I am not aware, but, as the
event transpired, the search was futile, and another day was
wasted.
