Excerpt from Yarns on African Pioneers to Be Told to Boys A little old man, barefooted and bareheaded and ridin upon an ass, went through the cities and towns and villages of mops, in the eleventh century, carrying - not a lance, but a crucifix. Hen he came near a town the word ran like a forest fire, It is Peter the Hermit. All the people rushed out. Their hearts burned as they heard him tell how the tomb of Jesus Christ was in the hand of the Moslem Turk, of how Christians going to worship at His Tomb in Jerusalem were thrown into prison and scourged and slain. Knights sold lands and houses to buy horses and lances. Peasants threw down the axe and the spade for the pike and bow and arrows. Led by knights, on whose armour a red Cross was emblazoned, the people poured out in their millions for the first Crusade. It is said that in the spring of 1096 an expeditionary force of six million people was heading toward Palestine.
