and pipe prominent.
SO we came into the next village.
The peasants were trickling out Of
their cottages, driving cattle hurriedly
and dragging babies and bundles. A
few gallant Gardes Ciyiques, rather
pallid but full of spirit, stood at the
barriers.
We ran gently through the village,
reassuring the residents where we
could, and turned a wide corner, and
there. standing by the road, leaning on
their horses, were about twelve Uhlans.
They were some two hundred yards off

yards further and looked through my
glasses.
A Uhlan stepped out and lifted his
glasses. let him have a good look TO
confirm my pacific appearance. Then |
walked back to the car, which was
turned and ready around a corner. We
swrled back through the village, hur-
rying the inhabitants. Then on the
other side, leaving the car ready, we
took a position and watched the troops
ride in, pull down the flag and cut the
wires.
Picking Up all the women we could,
we rushed back. Nothing could be
done. Not friendly soldier seemed
alive in the neighborhod. For time
We watched, laboriously climbing n

and a lot OF confagrations.
