Reading of Waldorf Massacre and Heroic Pastor's Son
A German village tale from 1800 near Waldorf recounts Davoust ordering ten villagers shot. A pastor's son volunteers, eight more join, a dramatic volley seems to kill all ten, but a ruse saves them. The story follows decades later as memory and honor revive in a veteran's letters and royal recognition.
