! The reason for this" said Nilus,
lis that at the sessions of the kahal
different persons filled each time the
duties of secretary. This accounts for
the different handwritings.'
Apparently Nilus regarded this de-
tail as proof that the manuscript
was an original text. Yet l remem-
Der that he told me another time that
the manuscript was only d copy.
After having shown me- the manu-
script. Nilus placed it before me on
the desk, opened the first page and
said Now, read, ~ In reading the
manuscript 1 was struck by certain
.peculiarities of the text. There We're
many mistakes in spelling and espe-
cially idioms that were not French.
There was no doubt that the manu-
| script had not been prepared by a
Frenchman. i read for two hours and
| one half. When l had finished, Nilus
took the note book, replaced 1t in its
envelope and locked it in drawer
of his desk, While l was reading
Nine. Nilus and Nine. X. returned
from church. ! did not Know wheth-
er Nine. X. was IL party to the secret
of the manuscript. i therefore said
nothing about it. ,Nilus, however. was
! eager to know my opinion and seeing
my discontinue. guessed exactly the
cause of my silence.
Come, you doubling Thomas" he
said laughingly, do you believe now
after you have touched, seen. and read
| the Protocols? Tell us what you think
of them. There are no strangers here.

mobile and who moreover. suffered
from disease. could have penetrated
the Secret Kahal of the Wise Men of
Zion"
YES" said Nilus. mime. X. lived
abroad for long time. In Paris, she
| received from the hands of a Rus
sian general this manuscript which
she transmitted to me. This general
had removed the manuscript from the
archives of the Freemasons'
asked Nilus whether the name of
this General was a secret.
Not at ALL replied Nilus, lit is
General Ratchkovsky, n very. brave
and active man who has done much in
his day to counteract the activities OF
the enemies of Christ"
l recalled that while in France,
when l was taking lessons in Russian
from student called Ezopoff, the lat
1 ter had told me that the Russian
! political police did not Leave Russian
! political offenders in peace even when
the latter had escaped to France
He said that General Ratchkovsky
was at the head of this police. ask
4 ed Nilus if this General Ratchkovsky
was not the head of the Russian
political police in France. Ny ques-

i Nilus. He replied in a vague manner
\ that Ratchkovsky fought against Free

greatest trick of the Devil is that he
can make people deny not only III

say when l show you how everything
contained in the Protocols has come
true and how the mysterious sign OF
the Antichrist appears everywhere n
