"There's hell to pay, somebody's broke out of the jug."

"How?"

"Damned if I know."

"Sergeant Timmons said he made a rope of his blankets."

"No, the feller on guard helped him to get away."

"Like hell he did. It was like this. I was walking by the
guardhouse when they found out about it."

"What company did he belong ter?"

"Dunno."

"What's his name?"


"Some guy on trial for insubordination. Punched an officer in the
jaw."

"I'd a liked to have seen that."

"Anyhow he's fixed himself this time."

"You're goddam right."
