1st W. “Yes, sir; and here’s the body all busted.” (Frog’s body produced.)
Mr. C. “And then what did you do?”
1st W. “Crawled back through the wood and signalled instructions to my patrol, sir. And when we got back they was starting in on another frog.”
Mr. C. “And how did you manage to catch these boys? They seem to be much bigger and stronger than any of you.”
1st W. “We lassooed ’em with ropes, sir, and pulled ’em backwards, sir, and then all ten of us set on ’em, sir, and tied ’em up, sir!” (Laughter.)
Mr. C. “And how did you get them to the camp?”
1st W. “Semaphored for the ’and-cart, sir.” (Laughter.)
2nd Witness called.
Mr. C. “Your name?”
