Heinrich's spell of ease, like those of
the other passengers, was at an end.
AS the crew at their heart-breaking never

his heart was wrung with pity for his
friends sufferings. His eyes We're blinded
with sweat and tears, and for once it was
a sad world.
Konrad had an inspiration. He broke
into a marching song of the Rhine, his
voice hoarse and cracked, his tongue
thick, his breath broken The handles
seemed lighter, the defiance of death and
torture was in the air. Men who had
fallen exhausted by the bulwarks, where
they lay as dead, lifted their voices in a

in the eyes, "is for you! And if | could

man, could sail a raft to the moon and

konrad divided it with Heinrich, who
accepted it without protest, and when
opportunity offered it was konrad who
got them a chance to travel to Sacramento
with big teaming outfit laden with sup
plies. Heinrich regretted, when they
reached the new city, from which at that
