CHAPTER XVII.

Throughout the night there was spo
radio firing here and there in the city
as the Ruey followers relentlessly
hunted down the isolated detachment
OF government troops which had es-
capped humiliation and capture in the
final rout and fallen back on the city,
where, concealing themselves accord
ing to their nature and inclination,
they INDUCED in more or less sniping
from windows and the roofs of build
ings. The practice Of taking no prIs-
oners was an old one in Sobrante, and
rev presidents had done more than
Sarros to keep that custom alive: err
go, firm in the conviction that to sur
render was tantamount to facing fir
ing squad at daylight, the majority of
these stragglers, with consummate
courage, fought to the death.
The capture of Buenaventura was
alone sufficient TO insure a brief reyo-
luton, but the capture of Sarros was
ample guarantee that the resistance to
the new order of things was already
at an end. However, Ricardo Ruey
felt that the prompt execution Of Sar-
ros would be an added guarantee of
peace by effectually discouraging any
opposition to the rebel cause In the
outlying districts, where a few isolated
garrisons still remained in ignorance of
the momentous events being enacted in
the capital. For the time being, Ricar-
do was master of life and death in So
brante. and all of his advisers and SUD-
porters agreed with him that a So |
called trial of the ex-dictator would be /
a rather useless affair. His life was
forfeit hundred times for murder and
treason, and to be pOnderous over his
would SAVIOR of mockery.
Accordingly, at midnight. a priest en-.
tered the room In the arsenal where
Sarros was confined, and shrived him.
throughout the night the priest re-
NAMED with him, and when that ear
y morning march TO the cemetery
commenced. he walked beside Sarros.

upon reaching the cemetery there
'as a slight wait until a carriage
rove up and discharged Ricardo Ruey

ommand OF the squad saluted and WAS
richly ordered to proceed with the
after in hand; wbereupon he turned
Sarros, who with the customary
ing froid of his kind upon such oe-
'sions was calmly smoking, and
WED deprecatingly. Sarros actually c
niled upon him. "Adios. amigos" he v
urmured. Then, as an afterthoueht o
