Those that dltd th deed showed not th slightest sign of repentance, and not on of u felt mc fined to reproach them; on the contrary, everyone know that desplcabt, brutal murderers bad met their doom. In this connection I mant mention a certain Incident which necessitates my jumping a little ahead of event. When en th following day J convers ed wtth a mate from my company and asked hVm for th loan of hi pocket knife h drew from hi pocket three cartridges besides hi knife. I was surprised to find him carrying cart- ridvea in hi trousers pocket and ask ed him whether he had no room for them In his cartridge caee, "There s room enough," he replied, "but those three sure meant for a part cu lor pur pose; there's a name hWortbed on each ot them." om tun seter we na m taut-while become fast friends- In nulred arain after the thre bullets.

He warded with same arlee of sham. A socialist comrade, a reservist, had the nine k to orv aloud: "Do you hear that. comrades?
