The whole battery was drunk going along the road -in the dark. We were going to the Champagne. The lieutenant kept -riding his horse out into the fields and saying to him, “I’m drunk, I -tell you, mon vieux. Oh, I am so soused.” We went along the road all -night in the dark and the adjutant kept riding up alongside my -kitchen and saying, “You must put it out. It is dangerous. It will be -observed.” We were fifty kilometers from the front but the adjutant -worried about the fire in my kitchen. It was funny going along that -road. That was when I was a kitchen corporal. - - - - - chapter 2 - - -The first matador got the horn through his sword hand and the crowd -hooted him out. The second matador slipped and the bull caught him -through the belly and he hung on to the horn with one hand and held -the other tight against the place, and the bull rammed him wham -against the wall and the horn came out, and he lay in the sand, and -then got up like crazy drunk and tried to slug the men carrying him -away and yelled for his sword but he fainted. The kid came out and -had to kill five bulls because you can’t have more than three -matadors, and the last bull he was so tired he couldn’t get the sword -in. He couldn’t hardly lift his arm. He tried five times and the -crowd was quiet because it was a good bull and it looked like him or -the bull and then he finally made it. He sat down in the sand and -puked and they held a cape over him while the crowd hollered and -threw things down into the bull ring. - - - - - chapter 3 - - -Minarets stuck up in the rain out of Adrianople across the mud flats. -The carts were jammed for thirty miles along the Karagatch road. -Water buffalo and cattle were hauling carts through the mud. No end -and no beginning. Just carts loaded with everything they owned. The -old men and women, soaked through, walked along keeping the cattle -moving. The Maritza was running yellow almost up to the bridge. Carts -were jammed solid on the bridge with camels bobbing along through -them. Greek cavalry herded along the procession. Women and kids were -in the carts crouched with mattresses, mirrors, sewing machines, -bundles. There was a woman having a kid with a young girl holding a -blanket over her and crying. Scared sick looking at it. It rained all -through the evacuation. - - - - - chapter 4 - - -We were in a garden at Mons. Young Buckley came in with his patrol -from across the river. The first German I saw climbed up over the -garden wall. We waited till he got one leg over and then potted him. -He had so much equipment on and looked awfully surprised and fell -down into the garden. Then three more came over further down the -wall. We shot them. They all came just like that. - - - - - chapter 5 - - -It was a frightfully hot day. We’d jammed an absolutely perfect -barricade across the bridge. It was simply priceless. A big old -wrought iron grating from the front of a house. Too heavy to lift and -you could shoot through it and they would have to climb over it. It -was absolutely topping. They tried to get over it, and we potted them -from forty yards. They rushed it, and officers came out alone and -worked on it. It was an absolutely perfect obstacle. Their officers -were very fine. We were frightfully put out when we heard the flank -had gone, and we had to fall back. - - - - - chapter 6 - - -They shot the six cabinet ministers at half-past six in the morning -against the wall of a hospital. There were pools of water in the -courtyard. There were wet dead leaves on the paving of the courtyard. -It rained hard. All the shutters of the hospital were nailed shut. -One of the ministers was sick with typhoid. Two soldiers carried him -downstairs and out into the rain. They tried to hold him up against -the wall but he sat down in a puddle of water. The other five stood -very quietly against the wall. Finally the officer told the soldiers -it was no good trying to make him stand up. When they fired the first -volley he was sitting down in the water with his head on his knees. - - - - - chapter 7 - - -Nick sat against the wall of the church where they had dragged him to -be clear of machine gun fire in the street. Both legs stuck out -awkwardly. He had been hit in the spine. His face was sweaty and -dirty. The sun shone on his face. The day was very hot. Rinaldi, big -backed, his equipment sprawling, lay face downward against the wall. -Nick looked straight ahead brilliantly. The pink wall of the house -opposite had fallen out from the roof, and an iron bedstead hung -twisted toward the street. Two Austrian dead lay in the rubble in the -shade of the house. Up the street were other dead. Things were -getting forward in the town. It was going well. Stretcher bearers -would be along any time now. Nick turned his head carefully and -looked down at Rinaldi. “Senta Rinaldi. Senta. You and me we’ve made -a separate peace.” Rinaldi lay still in the sun breathing with -difficulty. “Not patriots.” Nick turned his head carefully away -smiling sweatily. Rinaldi was a disappointing audience. - - - - - chapter 8 - - -While the bombardment was knocking the trench to pieces at Fossalta, -he lay very flat and sweated and prayed oh jesus christ get me out of -here. Dear jesus please get me out. Christ please please please -christ. If you’ll only keep me from getting killed I’ll do anything -you say. I believe in you and I’ll tell everyone in the world that -you are the only thing that matters. Please please dear jesus. The -shelling moved further up the line. We went to work on the trench and -in the morning the sun came up and the day was hot and muggy and -cheerful and quiet. The next night back at Mestre he did not tell the -girl he went upstairs with at the Villa Rossa about Jesus. And he -never told anybody. - - - - - chapter 9 - - -At two o’clock in the morning two Hungarians got into a cigar store -at Fifteenth Street and Grand Avenue. Drevitts and Boyle drove up -from the Fifteenth Street police station in a Ford. The Hungarians -were backing their wagon out of an alley. Boyle shot one off the seat -of the wagon and one out of the wagon box. Drevetts got frightened -when he found they were both dead. Hell Jimmy, he said, you oughtn’t -to have done it. There’s liable to be a hell of a lot of trouble. - -—They’re crooks ain’t they? said Boyle. They’re wops ain’t they? Who -the hell is going to make any trouble? - -—That’s all right maybe this time, said Drevitts, but how did you -know they were wops when you bumped them? - -Wops, said Boyle, I can tell wops a mile off. - - - - - chapter 10 - - -One hot evening in Milan they carried him up onto the roof and he -could look out over the top of the town. There were chimney swifts in -the sky. After a while it got dark and the searchlights came out. The -others went down and took the bottles with them. He and Ag could hear -them below on the balcony. Ag sat on the bed. She was cool and fresh -in the hot night. - -Ag stayed on night duty for three months. They were glad to let her. -When they operated on him she prepared him for the operating table, -and they had a joke about friend or enema. He went under the -anæsthetic holding tight on to himself so that he would not blab -about anything during the silly, talky time. After he got on crutches -he used to take the temperature so Ag would not have to get up from -the bed. There were only a few patients, and they all knew about it. -They all liked Ag. As he walked back along the halls he thought of Ag -in his bed. - -Before he went back to the front they went into the Duomo and prayed. -It was dim and quiet, and there were other people praying. They -wanted to get married, but there was not enough time for the banns, -and neither of them had birth certificates. They felt as though they -were married, but they wanted everyone to knew about it, and to make -it so they could not lose it. - -Ag wrote him many letters that he never got until after the -armistice. Fifteen came in a bunch and he sorted them by the dates -and read them all straight through. They were about the hospital, and -how much she loved him and how it was impossible to get along without -him and how terrible it was missing him at night. - -After the armistice they agreed he should go home to get a job so -they might be married. Ag would not come home until he had a good job -and could come to New York to meet her. It was understood he would -not drink, and he did not want to see his friends or anyone in the -States. Only to get a job and be married. On the train from Padova to -Milan they quarrelled about her not being willing to come home at -once. When they had to say good-bye in the station at Padova they -kissed good-bye, but were not finished with the quarrel. He felt sick -about saying good-bye like that. - -He went to America on a boat from Genoa. Ag went back to Torre di -Mosta to open a hospital. It was lonely and rainy there, and there -was a battalion of _arditi_ quartered in the town. Living in the -muddy, rainy town in the winter the major of the battalion made love -to Ag, and she had never known Italians before, and finally wrote a -letter to the States that theirs had been only a boy and girl affair. -She was sorry, and she knew he would probably not be able to -understand, but might some day forgive her, and be grateful to her, -and she expected, absolutely unexpectedly, to be married in the -spring. She loved him as always, but she realized now it was only a -boy and girl love. She hoped he would have a great career, and -believed in him absolutely. She knew it was for the best. - -The Major did not marry her in the spring, or any other time. Ag -never got an answer to her letter to Chicago about it. A short time -after he contracted gonorrhea from a sales girl from The Fair riding -in a taxicab through Lincoln Park. - - - - - chapter 11 - - -In 1919 he was travelling on the railroads in Italy carrying a square -of oilcloth from the headquarters of the party written in indelible -pencil and saying here was a comrade who had suffered very much under -the whites in Budapest and requesting comrades to aid him in any way. -He used this instead of a ticket. He was very shy and quite young and -the train men passed him on from one crew to another. He had no -money, and they fed him behind the counter in railway eating houses. - -He was delighted with Italy. It was a beautiful country he said. The -people were all kind. He had been in many towns, walked much and seen -many pictures. Giotto, Masaccio, and Piero della Francesca he bought -reproductions of and carried them wrapped in a copy of _Avanti_. -Mantegna he did not like. - -He reported at Bologna, and I took him with me up into the Romagna -where it was necessary I go to see a man. We had a good trip -together. It was early September and the country was pleasant. He was -a Magyar, a very nice boy and very shy. Horthy’s men had done some -bad things to him. He talked about it a little. In spite of Italy, he -believed altogether in the world revolution. - -—But how is the movement going in Italy? he asked. - -—Very badly, I said. - -—But it will go better, he said. You have everything here. It is the -one country that everyone is sure of. It will be the starting point -of everything. - -At Bologna he said good-bye to us to go on the train to Milano and -then to Aosta to walk over the pass into Switzerland. I spoke to him -about the Mantegnas in Milano. No, he said, very shyly, he did not -like Mantegna. I wrote out for him where to eat in Milano and the -addresses of comrades. He thanked me very much, but his mind was -already looking forward to walking over the pass. He was very eager -to walk over the pass while the weather held good. The last I heard -of him the Swiss had him in jail near Sion. - - - - - chapter 12 - - -They whack whacked the white horse on the legs and he knee-ed himself -up. The picador twisted the stirrups straight and pulled and hauled -up into the saddle. The horse’s entrails hung down in a blue bunch -and swung backward and forward as he began to canter, the _monos_ -whacking him on the back of his legs with the rods. He cantered -jerkily along the barrera. He stopped stiff and one of the _monos_ -held his bridle and walked him forward. The picador kicked in his -spurs, leaned forward and shook his lance at the bull. Blood pumped -regularly from between the horse’s front legs. He was nervously -wobbly. The bull could not make up his mind to charge. - - - - - chapter 13 - - -The crowd shouted all the time and threw pieces of bread down into -the ring, then cushions and leather wine bottles, keeping up -whistling and yelling. Finally the bull was too tired from so much -bad sticking and folded his knees and lay down and one of the -_cuadrilla_ leaned out over his neck and killed him with the -_puntillo_. The crowd came over the barrera and around the torero and -two men grabbed him and held him and some one cut off his pigtail and -was waving it and a kid grabbed it and ran away with it. Afterwards I -saw him at the café. He was very short with a brown face and quite -drunk and he said after all it has happened before like that. I am -not really a good bull fighter. - - - - - chapter 14 - - -If it happened right down close in front of you, you could see -Villalta snarl at the bull and curse him, and when the bull charged -he swung back firmly like an oak when the wind hits it, his legs -tight together, the muleta trailing and the sword following the curve -behind. Then he cursed the bull, flopped the muleta at him, and swung -back from the charge his feet firm, the muleta curving and each swing -the crowd roaring. - -When he started to kill it was all in the same rush. The bull looking -at him straight in front, hating. He drew out the sword from the -folds of the muleta and sighted with the same movement and called to -the bull, Toro! Toro! and the bull charged and Villalta charged and -just for a moment they became one. Villalta became one with the bull -and then it was over. Villalta standing straight and the red kilt of -the sword sticking out dully between the bull’s shoulders. Villalta, -his hand up at the crowd and the bull roaring blood, looking straight -at Villalta and his legs caving. - - - - - chapter 15 - - -I heard the drums coming down the street and then the fifes and the -pipes and then they came around the corner, all dancing. The street -full of them. Maera saw him and then I saw him. When they stopped the -music for the crouch he hunched down in the street with them all and -when they started it again he jumped up and went dancing down the -street with them. He was drunk all right. - -You go down after him, said Maera, he hates me. - -So I went down and caught up with them and grabbed him while he was -crouched down waiting for the music to break loose and said, Come on -Luis. For Christ sake you’ve got bulls this afternoon. He didn’t -listen to me, he was listening so hard for the music to start. - -I said, Don’t be a damn fool Luis. Come on back to the hotel. - -Then the music started up again and he jumped up and twisted away -from me and started dancing. I grabbed his arm and he pulled loose -and said, Oh leave me alone. You’re not my father. - -I went back to the hotel and Maera was on the balcony looking out to -see if I’d be bringing him back. He went inside when he saw me and -came downstairs disgusted. - -Well, I said, after all he’s just an ignorant Mexican savage. - -Yes, Maera said, and who will kill his bulls after he gets a -_cogida?_ - -We, I suppose, I said. - -Yes, we, said Maera. We kills the savages’ bulls, and the drunkards’ -bulls, and the _riau-riau_ dancers’ bulls. Yes. We kill them. We kill -them all right. Yes. Yes. Yes. - - - - - chapter 16 - - -Maera lay still, his head on his arms, his face in the sand. He felt -warm and sticky from the bleeding. Each time he felt the horn coming. -Sometimes the bull only bumped him with his head. Once the horn went -all the way through him and he felt it go into the sand. Someone had -the bull by the tail. They were swearing at him and flopping the cape -in his face. Then the bull was gone. Some men picked Maera up and -started to run with him toward the barriers through the gate out the -passage way around under the grand stand to the infirmary. They laid -Maera down on a cot and one of the men went out for the doctor. The -others stood around. The doctor came running from the corral where he -had been sewing up picador horses. He had to stop and wash his hands. -There was a great shouting going on in the grandstand overhead. Maera -wanted to say something and found he could not talk. Maera felt -everything getting larger and larger and then smaller and smaller. -Then it got larger and larger and larger and then smaller and -smaller. Then everything commenced to run faster and faster as when -they speed up a cinematograph film. Then he was dead. - - - - - chapter 17 - - -They hanged Sam Cardinella at six o’clock in the morning in the -corridor of the county jail. The corridor was high and narrow with -tiers of cells on either side. All the cells were occupied. The men -had been brought in for the hanging. Five men sentenced to be hanged -were in the five top cells. Three of the men to be hanged were -negroes. They were very frightened. One of the white men sat on his -cot with his head in his hands. The other lay flat on his cot with a -blanket wrapped around his head. - -They came out onto the gallows through a door in the wall. There were -six or seven of them including two priests. They were carrying Sam -Cardinella. He had been like that since about four o’clock in the -morning. - -While they were strapping his legs together two guards held him up -and the two priests were whispering to him. “Be a man, my son,” said -one priest. When they came toward him with the cap to go over his -head Sam Cardinella lost control of his sphincter muscle. The guards -who had been holding him up dropped him. They were both disgusted. -“How about a chair, Will?” asked one of the guards, “Better get one,” -said a man in a derby hat. - -When they all stepped back on the scaffolding back of the drop, which -was very heavy, built of oak and steel and swung on ball bearings, -Sam Cardinella was left sitting there strapped tight, the younger of -the two priests kneeling beside the chair. The priest skipped back -onto the scaffolding just before the drop fell. - - - - - chapter 18 - - -The king was working in the garden. He seemed very glad to see me. We -walked through the garden. This is the queen, he said. She was -clipping a rose bush. Oh how do you do, she said. We sat down at a -table under a big tree and the king ordered whiskey and soda. We have -good whiskey anyway, he said. The revolutionary committee, he told -me, would not allow him to go outside the palace grounds. Plastiras -is a very good man I believe, he said, but frightfully difficult. I -think he did right though shooting those chaps. If Kerensky had shot -a few men things might have been altogether different. Of course the -great thing in this sort of an affair is not to be shot oneself! - -It was very jolly. We talked for a long time. Like all Greeks he -wanted to go to America. - - - - - Here ends _The Inquest_ into the state - of contemporary English prose, as - edited by Ezra Pound and printed at - the Three Mountains Press.
