Judge Hollman, who had not participated, turned from the slit in his shuttered window, through which he had since the beginning been watching the conflict. "That ends it!" he said, with a despairing shrug of his shoulders. He picked up a magazine pistol which lay on his table, and, carefully counting down his chest to the fifth rib, placed the muzzle against his breast.
