On the other hand, a certain number of officers have obtained permission to go to Cairo and spend a few days with their wives interned in the Citadel; it is evident that this favour is only accorded in exceptional cases and cannot be made general.

The first offer was to repatriate the interned women and children by means of an American vessel, which would land them at the port of Mersina in Asia Minor.

"Been a steward, haven't you?" he inquired. "Yes, sir." The waiter pocketed the tip with alacrity. "Hamburg-American Line, sir." "Thought so." Miller signed his name with careful attention to each stroke of the pencil. "How many of you are employed here?" "Eight, sir. The lines are tied up; we must have work, and it's hard to get good berths, sir, with so many ships interned."

He was interned at La Trappe, then driven out of the priesthood, excommunicated by Rome. I learned in addition that he had several times been accused of poisoning, but had always been acquitted because the tribunals had never been able to get any evidence.

The same fate befell the cruisers Askold and Diana, the former of which sought shelter at Shanghai, while the latter succeeded in escaping as far south as Saigon.

The fourth battalion was cut to pieces at Woerth, Gravelotte, and Sedan; the fifth battalion was reduced from 3,000 to some 300; the sixth battalion retook Orleans, was compelled to abandon it, and covered itself with glory at Le Mans and elsewhere; and the seventh was interned with Bourbaki in Switzerland until the end of the war.

She shook herself slightly and turned her attention to Hinpoha, who was speaking. "Wouldn't it be dreadful if Veronica were to be interned?" Hinpoha was saying. "Veronica won't be interned," said Sahwah with an air of authority.

On August twentieth I paid my first visit to the police presidency in Berlin where political prisoners, when arrested, were confined. A small number of British prisoners subject to especial investigation were there interned.

Many other outrages were committed, shipping was attacked, and sailors robbed. The war which followed only ended with the peace of Madrid, September 26, 1617, by the provisions of which the Uscocs were to be interned and scattered over the Austrian provinces, and their ships destroyed; whilst the Venetians were to restore conquered places to Austria.
