THRILLING Story
OF the Escape Of 1lr. winston

FROM HIS BOER CAPTIVITY
Reads Like an Ante ellum Story Of
Escape From slavery-He Sealed

Reaching Delagoa.

LONDON. Dec. 27.-Mr. Winston
Spencer Churchill has cabled and the
Morning Post publishes to-day an &C.
count of his escape from captivity with
the Beers, after having been made a
prisoner In the reconnaissance Of an
armored train at Estcourt. The dis
patch, which Is dated Lourenzo Mar

train at Komatipoort, but did not
search deep enough. After some sixty
hours OF misery came safely here. /
am very weak. but am free. l have lost
many pounds in weight. but am light
in heart. shall avail myself OF every
opportunity henceforth to urge ear
nestly the undlnchlng and uncompro-
missing prosecution Of the war.
ION the afternoon OF December Il.
the Transvaars secretary of war In
formed me that there was little chance
of my release. l therefore resolved to
escape, and the same night l left the
state schools prison in Pretoria by
climbing the wall when the sentries'
backs were turned momentarily. I
walked through the streets of the
town without disguise, meeting many
burghers, but was not challenged In
the crowd. / got through the pIckets
of the town guards and struck the Del
agoa bay railroad. walked along It,
evadlng the watchers at the bridges
and culverts and waited for train be-
You'd the FIRST station. The li:1O goods
train from Pretoria had arrived before
! reached the place. and was moving at
full speed. boarded 1t with great diff
ficulty and hid under coal sacks. l
Jumped from the train before dawn,
and was sheltered during the day In a
small wood. in company with a huge
vulture, who displayed a lively interest
in me.
81 walked on at dusk. There were no
more trains that night. The danger Of
meeting the guards Of the line contin-
ued, but I was obliged to follow it as l
had no compass or map. had to make
wide detours to avoid bridges, stations
and huts. and 80 my progress was very
slow. Chocolate is not a satisfying
food. The outlook was gloomy. but l
persevered, with Gods help. For five
days my food supply was very precar-
iOus. 1 was lying up by daylight and
walking by night
meanwhile my escape had been dis
covered and my description telegraphed
everywhere. All trains were searched,
and everyone was on the watch for me.
-Four times the wrong people were ar
rested. The sixth day managed to
board n train beyond Middleburg from
whence there was direct service to Del.

therefore, to avert further calamity and

valuable shawls and money. The
prIests then asked divine blessings on
the rulers and ruled, and the people
sang hymns In Maruthi and Gujarati,
OF which the Indian papers give the
following translation:
