On the hard, white hospital cot next to mine lay all that six months of campaigning in the Boer war, plus an attack of pneumonia had left of the hardest drinking, hardest fighting, closest mouthed man in the British foreign legion. For the past two weeks he had fired no gun, tasted no liquor and had talked necessarily in his de- liriun, but he was fighting the greatest fight of his life, the fight that q man wages against fate when he knoRs he must die before he has finished his work on earth.
 had, during this time, managed to piece his story together quite accurately. I felt like a cad, lying there listening, while this hitherto fore silent man shouted at the top of his lungs things I knew he nev- CT would have whispered when he was in his right mind.
 Yet, there was little I could do about the matter. When Albert Zee was at his worst. I believe the men at the firing lines must have heard his pitiful rawlings over the noise of the guns.
 
 His story, as gathered it, was rather usual one in the legion. A sensitive. idealistic lad, he had married too young. A child soon followed, then several years of ex- treme poverty: finally heated argument with his wife over some trifie, and Albert Zee had become Private Zee of the legion of men who wish to forget.
 Zee undoubtedly had been a de- voted husband and father,' for his delirium of worry about his loved ones was horrible to witness.
 But most horrible of all were the times when his mind seemed to grasp all the facts. Then he would become whining, grovel- ing shadow of his former self, beg ging all who came near him to find his loved ones and see that they were well cared for--after. He knew only too well that he would soon die.
 One afternoon, toward the end, Zee regained Consciousness. He was lying on his back, staring at the ceiling when an attendant fol- lowed by the shabby figure of an old man, entered the room.
 You can only stay moment, sir" the orderly told the visitor. whom he led toward Albert's bed.
 Alberts wan gaze left the cell ing and rested on the mans face.
 "I understand" the visitor be- gan, that your surname is Zee, which happens also to be my name. I looked you up in hope we may be able 10 discover some relationship. We both" He suddenly stopped speaking, stunned by the expres-

Hard, coarse, soul-searing wordi rolled fuently from tho fever-biis, tered lips. I became almost sorry for the old man, who stood witt bowed head while Albert vented all his bitterness at life on that stopped, weather beaten frame Finally the old man turned to leave; but as he. shuffled slowly down the hall Albert continued to heap insults, abuse, that caused the frail shoulders to stoop to an even greater degree and to tremble with feelings that could not be express ed.
 Later the doctor came, followed by his inevitable assistant carry ing a bottle of cod-liver oil. After We had been duly dosed with the stuff the doctor began to examine Albert, apparently surprised to find him conscious.
 Heard you had visitor today" he remarked.
 Albert merely gave a tired grunt
 Strange" the doctor continued, tapping Albert's chest. finding two people bearing the name you do. Bet you've never met another Zee outside of your own family. By the way. is he any relation"
 "He kicked him out" I inter- ruptcd in an attempt to save Al bert the effort of talking. "Jds another of those duds who ham around here trying to get all they can out of us.'
 An expression of utter amaze mi is n Ift,r face, im mcdiately replaced. how ever, by his usual smile of pro fessional optimism. "I think" he lied to Albert, Eve can make you as good as new. Then, to me. you'll be out next week, Johns"
 | After the doctor left the room Albert and 1 lay in silence, both, as 1 discovered later, thinking of the visitor and of the doctors un-

 "Ever hear of any one in thess | parts wearing the same name | do?" he asked in tired, huskl voice. Htc queliNu tHS luaH' sohiNi my brother works for him. He came 10 Africa about thirty years ago and cleaned up millions in dia- monds.

 Suddenly Albert began to laugh, A hideous. horrible laugh thu echoed through the corridors and returned to creep through the mar row of my bones.
 The attendant scratched his head. "Delirious as they come" he murmuted, "and could have sworn he was conscious when l came in here"
