"When tile cur arrived at the terml

two Italians left the car by the roar door

"I was Standing on the north end of

The four men seemed to be within a few

shooting commenced the two Swedes
began running westward- The Italians
followed after ihcm for a short distance,

"After the shorter of the two Italians
