half asleep. Unobserved, the wife
knelt to give her husband cup of wa

However, he could see no risk in car
/ 7g out so much of her plan as she
had given him, and with the first sign
of dawn he began grooming so loud
that the nurse in charge reported the
fact that it was having bad effect on
the other patients. Zaide at once or
dered him taken to q room by himself
and remained to look after his necessi-
ties after those who had removed him
had left and told him the balance of
her plan for him. 1t was that he
should put on her clothes and since
Turkish ladies do not expose the face
there would be little difficulty in his
walking out past the guards without
being detected.
"And you?' exclaimed the husband.
"How will you protect yourself against
the terrible fate that will come to you
when it is discovered that you are
here and / have walked out in your

What became of the prisoners, except

put it on. and the two sailed forth.
The Turkish line in front was break

allies, and panic stricken men were
running past while random shots were
whistling by Andrews and his wife.
He begged Zaide to make toward the
enemy's lines. but she refused.
