Sooner or later, I realized I would
probably approach Belgian and find
a German instead, but in such con-
tingency I was determined to meas
ure my strength against the Huns II
necessary to effect my escape.
AS 1t was, however, most of the Bel
gians to whom l applied for food gave
it to me readily enough, and if some
of them refused me it was only be-
cause they feared I might be spy
or that the Germans would shoot them
If their action were subsequently
found out.
About the fifth day after I had en-
tered Belgium 1 was spending the day
as usual in clump of bushes when
discerned in the distance what ap-
peared to be something hanging on a
line. All day long I strained my eyes
trying to decide what it could be and
arguing with myself that it might be
something that / could add to my in
adequate wordrobe, but the distance
was so great that I could not identify
1t. I had great fear that before
night came 1t would probably be re-
moved.
As soon as darkness fell, however, !
crawled out Of my hiding place and
worked up to the line and got pair
of overalls for my industry. The pair
of overalls was the first bit of civil
ian clothes l had thus far picked up
with the exception of civilian cap
which I had found at the prison and
concealed on my person and which
still had. The overalls were rather
small and very short, but when l put
them on I found that they hung down
far enough to cover my breeches.
1t was perhaps three days later that
I planned to search another house fol
further clothes. Entering Belgian
houses at night is anything but safe
| proposition, because their families are
large and sometimes as many as sever
or eight sleep In a single room. The
| barn is usually connected with the
| house proper, and there was always
the danger Of disturbing some dumb
animal even II the inmates of the
: house were not aroused.
| Frequently I took chance o.
searching a back Yard at night in thu
hope Of finding fooo scraps, but IN,

that l soon decided that IL WASH

occasional meal that was able to ge
from the Belgian peasants in the day
time.
Nevertheless l was determined t.
get more In the way of clothing ant
when night came picked out a hous
that looked as though it might furnish
me with what l wanted. 1t was
moonlight night and if 1 could get il
the barn would have a fair chance o
finding my way around by the moon

The barn adjoined the main part o
the house, but i CROPPED around yer
