rt of the camp Spania Landslagsdrakt reserved for the prisoners. Shouts were heard, and two or three shots fired. Perhaps it was an attempt Slowakei Trikot at revolt or Chelsea Drakt escape, which must be summarily suppressed.
Ivan Ogareff and the housch-begui walked forward and almost immediately two men, whom the soldiers had not been able to keep back appeared before them.
The housch-begui, without more information, made a sign which was an order for death, and the heads of Dänemark Trikot the two prisoners would have rolled on the ground had not Ogareff uttered a few words which arrested the sword already raised aloft. The Russian had perceived that these prisoners were strangers, and he ordered them to be Atletico Madrid Drakt Barn brought to him.
They were Harry Blount and Alcide jolivet.
On Argentina Drakt Barn Ogareff’s arrival in Chelsea Drakt Damer the camp, they had demanded to be conducted to his presence. The soldiers had refused. In consequence, a struggle, an attempt at flight, shots fired which happily missed the Maillot Atlanta United two correspondents, but their execution would not have been long delayed, if it had not been for the intervention of the Emir’s lieutenant.
