and made no reply. Tne herman gave
a few orders in his own language, and
then moved his chair in order not to be
too near the prisoners Twelve men
with loaded muslxets then placed them
selves at a distance of twenty feet
The officer continued:
Il will give you one minute-not
second more"
He arose and brusquely approached
the two Frenchmen. Taking Morissot
by the arm he led him short distance
away and said in a low voice:
Quick, the pass word Your COM
rade will never know"
Morissot made no reply.
The PrussIan then took Savage
aside and made the same proposal TO
him
NJ. Savage made no reply.
They again found themselves side by
side
The officer gave a command, and the
soldiers raised their arms
By chance, Morissot's glance fell upon
the basket of fish lying on the ground
a few PAGES away. The shining scales
Of the still living fish sparkled in the
sunlight In spite of himself his eyes
filled with tears and he stammered:
.'Good-by, NJ. Savage"
NJ. Salvage responded:
''Good-by, NJ. Morissot"
They shook hands. The officer cried:
Fire
The twelve reports rang out like one
NJ. Savage fell like a block. Morissot,
who was taller, wavered, turned and
fell across his companion, face up
wards. a flood of blood rushing from
his breast.
The German gave new order.
whereupon his men marched away,
but ret tn rned presently with cords and
stones, which they attached 10 the
feet of the corpses-
Two soldiers took Morissot by the
head and feet and bore him To the
river. and two others followed with
Savage. The bodies, poised for an in
slant, were thrown into the stream
and, describing a curve as they fell,
plunged feet foremost into the current
The water foamed and boiled and
then became calm, while few little
waves reached as far as the shore The
surface was slightly stained with blood
The officer. still serene and unruffied,
quietly remarked:
Now il Is the turn of the fishes"
Then, turning toward the house, he
noticed the basket of fish on the grass
He picked it up. examined it. smiled
and cried.
Wilhelm
A soldier wearing a white apron ran
up at his call, and the Prussian, throw
ing the fish to him, commanded:
Fry these for me while they are still
alive They will be delicious"
Then he resumed his. pipe.-From
Maupassant, translated by Arthur A
Folsom for Boston Budget
