Czar Alexander was at a ball given in his honor by COUNT LEVIN AUGUST BENNIGSEN, age 67 when the message of the invasion came as a whisper in his ear. "I will not make peace so long as a single armed enemy soldier remains in my country," he said, in French, to no one in particular and returned to the ball.
