Mrii Wore Pledged to Shoot
Every One of Thorn.
Washington. I>. C.?The thrilling experiences
of Miss Mary Condit Smith,
sister-in-law of MaJor-CIeueral Wood,
and the other women who were shut
up in the British Legation at IVkin j
during the siege^were kept in a diary
from day to day by Miss Smith, who'
has sold the diary to New York publishers
for. ?10,O!)n for its reproduetion1
in hook form. In telling of her expe-'
rietiees in IVkin Miss Smith says:
"We grew to he horribly expert in
pistol praetlre. livery woman in the;
legation was provided with a pistol,
and the vital spots where a weil-dlreeled
lmllet would kill instantaneous
ly were pointed out to her.
"livery day tlie women prnetieed tar
gel shooting for hours with revolvers,
and also prnetieed with blank cartridges
against their own persons,
livery woman had promised to place
the muzzle of lier revolver in her
mouth and blow the top of her head
off at tlie sight of the lirst Boxer who
should scale the wall of the legation
compound. Should the women become
panic-stricken, every man was
pledged to shoot the women until not
one was left alive.
"For days and nights together not a
soul in the legation dared to sleep.
-...I .<nn?i n<m.> ill ilil.v moment ro use
tin- pistols In Ills hands, which, tired
as they were, never mice relaxed their
hold upon tile weapons of death.
"On one nevcr-to-bo-forgo! ten occasion
we were actually lined up, with
the men in a solid line in front of us
ready to shoot us. for it was momentarily
expected that the Boxers would
pain possession. Night after night
sitae ilion have I lain awak going ell
over it again, or sunk into sleep only
to he tortured wiili dreams as harrowliar
as the actual experiences.
"But even at such times there was
left in us an appreciation of certain
comicalities over which we actually
laughed. I remember on one of the
occasions how Mrs. Conger made us
laugh by saying that she actually, nil
through the siege, was more afraid of
her husband than any Boxer who ever
was bom, for Mr. Conger was in such
nil overwrought condition she was
mortally afraid he might shoot her
dead on some false alarm.
"One of the worst tilings was to
witness the suffering and starvation
of the poor children huddled in the
legation. The positive heroism of
some of those children In trying to
distract the attention of the starving
ones from their pitiable condition and
give them heart to live through the '
awful experiences is beyond anything
that ever was written.
"I remember on one occasion one of
the officers came to us holding out his
