Mock, still limping and looking woeful, kept out in the open air. "Psst!" came sharply from somewhere, and Mock, turning, saw a man in civilian garb standing in the shadow of a latrine shed. "Come here," called the stranger. Still surly, but urged by curiosity, Mock obeyed the summons.

The floors were wood, the walls smoothly plastered and the general appearance, inside and outside, attractive. In addition to the inside latrines, an outside latrine with five seats and a urinal was built by our men. This latrine contained a heater.

Then, after ordering the doctor to leave immediately, the chief jumped out of a tree into the tribal latrine and was unavailable for any further discussion. Substantially taken aback but firm in his resolution, the doctor decided to take his offer directly to the natives.

The fellows from the Thirty-second say we're going to march into hell's half- acre about Thursday." "A lot they know about it." "That's the latest edition of the latrine news." "The hell it is! Well, d'you want to know something, Andrews.... It'll be before Thursday, or I'm a Dutchman." Sergeant Higgins put on a great air of mystery.

An unpublished passage in his trial proceedings informs us that 'The said sire heated himself with little boys, sometimes also with little girls, with whom he had congress in the belly, saying that he had more pleasure and less pain than acting in nature.

They maintained a sentry of their own, whose duty it was to watch for and report our trips to the latrine. It was unsafe for us to ask for this permission more than once a day with the same guard. As the latter was frequently changed, however, we were enabled to work the scheme to the limit.

We may presume that the boys broke the windows and images with a sanctified joy. A mutilated head of the Redeemer has been found in a latrine of the monastic buildings.

Momentarily he sagged against a wall for support, far weaker than he thought possible for a man of his youth and what he thought of as his condition. Making his way almost blindly to Security's quarters in rim-section B-5, he staggered through the door and on towards the latrine, shouting at Chauvenseer to "Get out of that sack and give me a detailed report on events since the flare.

Lewis wrote home he'd starve on the rations we get if it weren't for the parcels his people send him. The C.O. had him up. He told him to make complaints through the proper channels in future and gave him seven days Number 2. He has to collect and empty the latrine buckets every morning before breakfast.

They informed me that no food had been cooked for them for three days. The child eight years old was then trying to make some tea. This same room was used as a dining room and kitchen. It had double windows, all sealed air-tight. Russian troops very difficult to discipline along sanitary or hygienic lines and have no idea of cleanliness. A guard on the latrine was an absolute necessity.
