A local- defence volunteer in a lonely, spot cried “ Halt!” to a man in a car, who promptly halted. “ Halt!” said the L.D.V. again.
“ I have halted,” said the "motorist. “ What do you want me to do next?” “ I don’t know,” said the L.D.V,“My orders are to say ‘Halt!’ three times and then shoot.”—The ‘ Daily Telegraph,’ Loudon.
