He went to the front as a volunteer with the clear and inflexible idea of fulfilling a sacred duty, with the presentiment he had always in his soul of sacrificing his life for his country. He did not deceive himself. He traced a program of action which he carried out without hesitation. 'To Lieutenant Mazzinghi on October 18th he wrote: \" I have made up my mind to do my duty to the end, and to be a good example to my soldiers. I hope the Lord will help me and that my beloved dead will look down on me and that the prayers of my mother will assist me. If I am sure of victory and of the unfailing triumph of our army, I am not equally sure that I shall see all these beautiful things here below. On the contrary, my presentiment is that in moving to the assault I am going to be released from the ties that bind me to this world. I do not know why, but I could almost swear to this.\" Twenty-three days later his presentiment was fulfilled.
