GOOL AND ABDULLA'S LAST MESSAGE.

Sydney, This Day,

The Broken Hill police have been handcdi a document, allegedly found at the place where the Turks were shot, written in an Eastern language, wherein, Ahdulla, speaking for Gool, states that Gool wanted to fight and kill the British because they were fighting his country. He adds: "I never interfered' with anyone here and none interferfered with me. I had no enemies and nobody told me to do it. T tell nobody, as God is my witness, that nobody knows except us two."

Abdulln, on his own behalf, writes that he was worried over being summoned. He and Gool talked over their troubles, and then prayed to God that life was no good or use to them. He adds: "None interfered with me excepting the Court and some larrikin children who threw stones at mo for wearing a turban. That w is why I wear n turban to-day. Ndbody but God knows what us two are going to do. I swear to God this is true."
