The ammunition that he helped hide
away, is not all that is in the possess

olares are daily preparing for a re-

and he is ready to go back to his peo-
pie. He was asked when it would be
declared. He said:
Next year at longest. First thing
you hear of it will be that the English
no longer are in the Transvaai and
that Paul Kruger's land is free OF op-
preston again.
1T will come as a thunderclap to
England. A Boer army viii be in the
field and the British on the run when
London knows it. We will win next
time, sure, or there will be no people
in the Transvaal for the English to
rule when the fighting is over.
Thus he tells of his hopes and ex-

that denotes man willing TO Ole

willingness, it would not be thought

Lewis Albright, now ia resident of
America and a mechanic in Wichita. -.
His head iH covered with brown hair
streaked with gray, although his age
is less than two score years Near six
feet tall and weighing above 200
pounds, he has the physique of a Boer,
and his face and general bearing be-
speak him a citizen of the Transvaal.
Once a locomotive engineer in a free
country, he lived happy and content,
but the downfall of his country's hope
at the onslaught of a British army,
left him sad and revengeful.
Hope that some day he may be able
to return to his native land and take
on a fight for freedom, inspires this
man to steady endeavor.
He can speak but little English, al
though he reads English well. In his
broken accent the story Of his past
since England invaded the land of Paul
Kruger, is told.
As an engineer on an armered train
he saw much of the hard fighting of
the English-South African war of
few years ago, and was in most OF the
big battles.
At Ladysmith he quit his train. and
rifle in hand, assisted in retarding the
advance of England's army for weeks.
