"Your Corporal's stripe, you suckin' innocent! Wot for? For takin' a Boer spy pris'ner that's wot for!" "Cripps!" said W. Keyse, enlightened, illuminated and glowing in the darkness. He added a moment later, in rather a depressed tone: "But it was 'im, the civilian bloke with the beard, 'oo downed the Dutchy, an' sat on 'im till the guard come up."
