twenty-five or thirty foreigners in the

Hammett cited one case when certain

on the opposite side from the robbers
and hid behind the embankment, which is
seven feet high. Looking over 1 could
see all that was going on, but 1t was some
time before 1 could distinguish between
the robber and the others. Finally they
