Rothschild restored tilsido the buried gold to him and the prince, by way of gratitude, made Ro thschild his banker. It is quite a fascinating experi- ence to read Corti'se demolition of this legend. All who are inter- ested in business coups must not fail to read the true account either in Corti's book or in E.

Nathan, the Lon- don Rothschild, the legend goon, was himself present at the battle watching its fortunes from behind the English line.

The le- gend goes that when, from his van- tage point he was certain that Na- poleon had been beaten, he rode on a fast horse which was waiting, all the way to Ostend. When he arrived at Ostend there was a storm at sea. No ship would ven- ture across. But he offered so high a price that one captain made the venture and brought hint safely across to Dover. At Dover his carriage was waiting and it drove hint with great sliced to London, where he was the only man who knew the outcome of the battle.
