Last night it rained and biew with gTeat violence, vio-lence, and the barricade came down. "On one side was a Briti?h soldier, and on the other a German. Instead of trying to shoot each other Ts beads off, they qnietlv began to pile- the sa--ks in position again. First tho Englishman English-man put up a park. then the German, until all was finished. Then they said 'Good night and dropped back In their sentry positions." |
