ward bound car when friend remarked: Have
you noticed that we have not seen single intoxi-
pencil and note book from our pocket, the fact
carefully inscribed. and We entered the car

other patriots more or less under the influence Of
beDzne. were picked up; but We may say that,

individual, every one behaved well. We had
been sold, and lost our item; but. with the perti-
nacity Of newspaper reporter, We thought some
