When the Prisoners Realized That They
Were, Legally, COnvicts.


Were, Legally, Convicts.

down his head. looked up proudly when
the sentence hid been passed, and the 9TH
er defendants stared hard at the lord chief
justioe. Very soon after the sentencing
formulitics had been completed the
war,lens of Holloway prison appeared
and took up positions on each side of tho
PRISONERS. This was the bittUrcst moment
of ali .or the raiders, as up to that time
they had been treated with the greatest
courtesy and had III fact been made heroes
of to a certain degree.
But when the elbows OF the prison war.
dcns touched those ot the aristocratic fill
busters they seemed 10 realize that the
strong arm of the law bad knocked all the
romance out of the Transvaal fasco. and
