All the men wcro killed but Paul and be fore they captured him, he had presence of mind enough to smash all our machine guns and arms. Tho Jans were so amazed at his courage that even they made a hero of him. He was fed and clothed and well treated by them for a few days, then taken to Camp O'Donncil. A few days Inter he comnlalned of a head' ache and fever,, lost conscious ness that evening, and died the next morning of cerebral malar- la which he had contracted in Bataan.
