him to take to his heels. He was not

ground, he suddenly turned and swift

was a hundred yards away, running at
the top OF his speed. Another dilem-
ma then presented itself to the
guard He could not pursue the fuei-

an opportunity to escape, and the only
thing left for him to do WAS to ord err
his remaining prisoner to Join in the
pursuit and keep beside him. The
chase was then commenced in shat
