It is MONDAY.
Two uhlans ride at sharp gallop ovel
the broad, treeless meadowland TOWARD
a wood which lies ahead Of them. They
bend forward in their saddles. The horse:
are steaming, their nostrils are full Of
foam, their hoofs beat thunderously OF
the ground.
-Four hundred metres behind the rider
thin smoke clouds arise in quick succession
a sharp report comes from that direction
Ping! Ping. Ping!
Something whistles by the riders: sst
sst! sst. and loses itself in the wood.
In the wood twigs are broken, branches
are shattered On the big tree trunks dust
rises in the seams Of the bark.
The riders are now only about a hun
bred metres from the woods edge. Some
thing screams friehtfully through the air
A clap like thunder rolls over the meadow
From the wood the thunder echoes back.
Speeches., the two uhlans look into
each others eyes. There is the scream
again right over their heads. Boom! A
roaring and whistling fill the air. In The
grass two riders and two horses roll ovei
and over.

II is evening.
A uhlan lies i'm the meadow between two
dead horses. His left trousers leg is torn
off and his leg is bandaged. A band IS

No answer.
Then he mutters: 81 am bandaged.
Then he is not wounded. And he is not
here. SO he is saved.
"Only one shot hit the mark. The
others were wild Poor practice, as ever.
But that one struck-struck me just in the
shadow Of the wood, the sheltering wood
But that is no great record in their own
territory, where they know all the dis
tances.
But Franz must have brought back the
information. Our people know what TO eX-

Thinking makes the uhlan tired. He
closes his eyes. His position is uncomfort-
able. lie feels his legs.
Left one hurt. SO then-to the right?
Carefully he turns his body on the right
side, sparing the wounded leg, and lays his
head on the right forearm. Reconciled 70
