Massacre IS a h%orrifying word

"It's a massacrel Rum"
And the great crowd bolted.
Like pursuing wolves, the In

burst through the crowd and
rushed Lydia to the free space

The two Young men glared at

Charlie returned Billy's stare for
a long moment. Then sullenly,
slowly, he turned and threw out
across the night a long, shrill cry.
He gave 1t again and again. At
