In a little town near the Russian
border Colonel Uilendorf WAS cncamp-

the time no enemy very near him, and
he sent for his daughter, Sonia. 20
come from Moscow to visit him. But
the pan-European war was on. and
there might be fighting at any mo-
meut. So the colonel wrote his dauEh-
ter to come with as little baggage as
possible and lie ready to get back at
short notice.
When Sonia came she was escorted
by Paul Schumsky. a citizen.

he was meditating surrender he was
told that man in citizens dress had
