THE FLIGHT FROM CAPTIVITY ON "THE THIRD ATTEMPT"

_How I Escaped from Germany_

_Told by Corporal John Southern, and set down by A. E. Littler_

The thrilling experiences of a British soldier who succeeded,

at the third attempt, in escaping from imprisonment in Germany.

Rendered desperate by the brutality of his jailers, he made up his

mind to get away at all costs. Once he tunneled his way out of the

camp, only to be recaptured and punished. A second time he tried,

only to meet with the same fate and more severe punishment. But

liberty still beckoned, and yet again, with two comrades, Southern

essayed the feat--this time successfully--and eventually reached

the dear homeland. A remarkable human document recorded in the

_Wide World_.
