Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

There is an island in the ocean where in 1914 a few Englishmen, Frenchmen, and Germans lived.

No cable reaches that island, and the British mail steamer comes but once in sixty days.

In September it had not yet come, and the islanders were still talking about the latest newspaper which told about the approaching trial of Madame Caillaux for the shooting of Gaston Calmette.

It was, therefore, with more than usual eagerness that the whole colony assembled at the quay on a day in mid-september to hear from the captain what the verdict had been.

They learned that for over six weeks now those of them who were English and those of them who were French had been fighting in behalf of the sanctity of treaties against those of them who were Germans.

For six strange weeks they had acted as if they were friends, when in fact they were enemies.
