MARCH 23, 1953 Exit Tony Blount by Sydney Parknian CHAPTER. III Continued He moved off at that. and Chris- tophe shot a glance across at his workmate. ”Nioe fellow -- the sergeantl" he uttered. "Wouldn't I like to have five minutes alone with the dog! I'd bath him. I'd tear the guts out of him and wear them'ior ii neektiel" "shut up. youi" the guard snap- ped. "Get on with your work and don't caeklei" l The breeze grew steadily in strength. and presently a fringe of dark cloud thrust up over the trees on the southern edge of the clearing and there came the iirst distant mutter of t.hunder. The gu " bed at his watch and. ate out clear or the trees. at up It the sky. It was evident at he did not shade the sergeant's;view. and he was cal- culating how long it would be be- fore the heavy storm clouds ar- rived overhead. : They were moving very deliber- ntely. but in the course oi the next ten minutes the pail spread slow- ly up over the sky - the heavy iiiack masses taking on a lurid, evil appearance as they crept lor- ward with the yellow r s oi the westering lun light-ms D their undersldes amokily. t Presently. that too was blotted out, and the visibility dropped suddenly into a grey. half-light. The wind which had been bending the tall trees with the force of its gusts. dropped with dramatic sud- denneas. and Blount could feel his hair pricking in a. curious. un- comfortable manner. The distant rumble of thunder was almost con- tinuous'now. and appeared to be coming irom all directions. while the iilcker oi lightning threw up the tree tops on the other side oi the clearing in a dark fret against the lowering sky. in the prevailing stillness every sound became magnified unnatur- ally, and the axe strokes of the men on the other side oi the clear- ing rang out with uncanny clear- iiess. The guard was pacing rest- lessly backwards and forwards. evidently waiting for the signal for the prisoners to fall in: but it still lacked some ten minutes or B0 to the customary time.

I moving before it was absolutely necessary. In the windlcss air Blount was sweating proiusely over his work. They were half way througiv a young tree. and as he paused to wipe the moisture iron: his eyes with the sodden sleeve oi his jump- er. he cursed the weather fretiul- iy. At any moment now Duchart would give the signal to fall in and his last chance would be gone for the day. It was obvious that they could not cut through this particular tree in' the time. and by tacit con- sent he and Christophe "marked time" with the cross-cut - keep- ing up the swinging backwards and iorwards motion. but exerting no more strength than was necessary to produce the sound of sawing. It was an old dodge which an ex- perienced guard would have de- tected at once by the changed note oi the blade. but their man was thinking more" of the changed weather conditions than oi his charges and he noticed nothing. The through the stillness, the sergeants shout came clearly. "Return toolsl" he bawled. and on top oi the words they heard a low. distant roar as oi: the sea breaking on a sandy shore. Their guard sprang into ity at once. "Come onl Jump to it!" he ex- claimed. "1 don't want to stop here all night ii you dogs dol At the double nowi" His voice and manner seemed to indicate that the impending storm had frayed his nerves. and the men obeyed him hastily. The two prisoners with the axes trotted in towards the middle of the clearing where the thatched tool shed stood. and Christophe iollowed with the croas-cut balanced on one should- er. only Blount remained behind gathering up the wedges they had been using. With a last fleeting hope that the an might turn his back upon him ting him to follow, he took as long about it as he dared. and in so doing brought the vials of the man's wrath down upon him. "What are you playing at?" he demanded savagely, striding up to him. "Drop those things and get going!" Blouht looked up at him in the halflight. ”The orders are that all tools are to be returned . .." he began. when the guard cut him short with a furious oath. "Don't argue with me, you scum!” he snarled and he struck his upturned face with the back of his hand. It was then that Blount made the opportunity he had been look- ing for. Dropping the wedges. he lunged forward. driving his list into the others stomach- and as the man doubled up an crashed over back- wards. he shot. one glance over his shoulder towards where the rest 01 the gang .was muster-ing by the tool shed, and leapt for the shel- ter oi the trees.

"The reason ior this is slmpl you are wearing on the average a higher proportion of sheerer hosiery than ever before."
