HONER HARMONICA: "Pour it on his head," ordered the officer; and the policeman took off the pancake-shaped cap and poured the water over the red curls and bald part of the prisoner's head. His eyes opened wide as if in fear, but his position remained unchanged. Streams of dirt trickled down his dusty face, but the mouth continued to gasp in the same regular way, and his whole body shook. "And what's this? Take this one," said the police officer, pointing to Nekhludoff's isvostchik. "You, there, drive up." "I am engaged," said the isvostchik, dismally, and without looking up. "It is myHONER HARMONICA: isvostchik; but take him. I will pay you," said Nekhludoff, turning to the isvostchik. "Well, what are you waiting for?" shouted the officer. "Catch hold." The policeman, the porter, and the convoy soldier lifted the dying man and carried him to the trap, and put him on the seat. But he could not sit up; his head fell back, and the whole of his body glided off the seat. "Make him lie down," ordered the officer. "It's all right, your honour; I'll manage him like this," said the policeman, sitting down by the dying man, and clasping his strong, right

The policeman, sitting beside the convict, kept dragging up the body that was continually sliding down from the seat, while the head swung from side to side. The convoy

The trap passed the fireman who stood sentinel at the entrance, [the headquarters of the fire brigade and the police stations are generally together in Moscow] drove into the yard of the police station, and stopped at one of the doors. In the yard several firemen with their sleeves tucked up were washing some kind of cart and talking loudly. When the trap stopped, several policemen surrounded it, and taking the
HONER HARMONICA: lifeless body of the convict under the arms, took him out of the trap, which creaked under him. The policeman who had brought the body got down, shook his numbed arm, took off his cap, and crossed himself. The body was carried through the door and up the stairs. Nekhludoff followed. In the small, dirty room where the body was taken there stood four beds.
