to see n column of 900 prlaoners pans
us. Each aide of the causeway was
lined by Australians, with their keen,
clear-cut, falcoo faces, and between
lurched these heavy-Jawed, beetlebrowed,
uncouth louts, new-caught and
staring round with bewildered eyes at
their dehonnalre captors. I saw none
of that relief at getting out of It
which I have read of; nor did I see
any signs of fear, but the prevailing
Impression was un oxllke stolidity and
j dullness. It wns a herd of beasta, not
a procession of men. It was Indeed
farcical to think that those uniformed
bumpkins represented the great military
nation, while the gallant figures
who lined the road belonged to the
race which they'hnd despised as being
