You know me, sir! cried Tom, still holding on to the other;
gpt
Prove it!
human
Yes, I will prove it! panted Tom.
gpt
Make him a prisoner, sir; I tell you he's been communicating with the enemy. I saw him not a minute ago!
human
What has he done?
gpt
I saw him take a piece of paper from his pocket which was fastened to something heavy; then he threw it over the sand-bags towards the German lines. I tell you, sir, I saw him do it! Make him a prisoner.

He's either a fool or a madman, he said;
gpt
Hold him fast, sir, cried Tom.
human
I'll soon prove to you whether it's without the slightest reason. Promise me you won't let him go, sir?
gpt
Of course I shall not let him go, but you must prove your accusation, Pollard. Where are you going?
human
I am going to get the paper he threw towards the German trenches, cried Tom.
gpt
That's it, sir, hold him fast!
