"But what Where can we get a crowbar"<br />

"Everything is right there. But it all belongs to the<br />

boss."<br />

Without further ado, Demetrio strode into the shed<br />

which had been pointed out as the toolhouse.<br />

It was all a matter of a few minutes. Once in the alley,<br />

hugging to the walls, they marched forward in single file<br />

until they reached the rear of the church. Now they had<br />

but a single fence and the rear wall of the chapel to<br />

scale.<br />

"God's will be done!" Demetrio said to himself. He was<br />

the first to clamber over.<br />

Like monkeys the others followed him, reaching the<br />

other side with bleeding, grimy hands. The rest was easy.<br />

The deep worn steps along the stonework made their ascent<br />

of the chapel wall swifter. The church vault hid<br />

them from the soldiers.<br />

"Wait a moment, will you" said the workman. "I'll<br />

go and see where my brother is; I'll let you know and then<br />

you'll get at the officers."<br />

But no one paid the slightest attention to him.<br />

For a second, Demetrio glanced at the soldiers' black<br />

coats hanging on the wall, then at his own men, thick on<br />

the church tower behind the iron rail. He smiled with<br />

satisfaction and turning to his men said:<br />

"Come on, now, boys!"<br />

Twenty bombs exploded simultaneously in the midst<br />

of the soldiers who, awaking terrified out of their sleep,<br />

started up, their eyes wide open. But before they had realized<br />

their plight, twenty more bombs burst like thunder<br />

upon them leaving a scattering of men killed or maimed.<br />

"Don't do that yet, for God's sake! Don't do it till I<br />

find my brother," the workman implored in anguish.
