...noteworthy thing, as recorded in the press dispatches yesterday, that the interned German liners displayed American flags in commemoration of the birthday of Lincoln. It would be the depth of prejudice to hint that the display of those flags betokened anything but the sincere admiration of the commanders of the liners.

We found in the case of each a stairway on the eastern side leading down to the chambers under the pyramid.
