over the story Of how he put Gassen out
of his room on the day the latter died.
Both he and the deceased were more or

when Gassen wanted to lie down on his
bed he objected and told him to go into
his own room. Gassen would not go and
he took him under the arms and walked
him into the next room. In doing SO
Gassen stumbled and fell to the floor, but
got up and lay down on the bed, where
he left him. A little later German went
in the room again and found Gassen
bleeding from cut on the ear. He
staunched the blood with his own hand

lay down again, being awakened later
in the afternoon to hear that Gassen
was dying.
