Tie capture of the dutch Automo bile and its passengers was one of the most daring exploits i have Ever heard of. Yes the life of a spy is a danger Ous one.

The stranger suddenly said to him you d better be More careful. Your Tongue is too Loose. The Man of whom you you will find out when you reach your Des nation. Subject of conversation killed sure enough. The Man who had been the subject of the train con dead his bed when the talkative one arrived at their trusting place. Thus the spy plague flourishes Mas foreign agents As in 11314 .918, gather to work their evil de Igns on the soil of the innocent adjunct in the unemployment organization in Winnipeg for the specific purpose of assisting families and individuals on Relief to rehabilitate themselves on a self sustaining basis.
