Armenians at Cesarea. When the gov

ans, he tore the communication up. He
then sent for the commander of the
troops and asked him If he had a SIM
liar message. Upon receiving an af-
firmative reply, he demanded that it be
given over to him. The commandant
demurred. The governor then took a
revolver from his desk and, covering the
cOmmandant, said:
UNLESS YOU hand that message over
to me at once. 1 will blow off your
head"
The cOmmandant surrendered the dis
patch.
