Too Long; Didn't Read

As the two riders approached the edge of the village of Blentz a sentry barred their way. To his challenge the American replied that they were “friends from the castle.” “Advance,” directed the sentry, “and give the countersign.” Barney rode to the fellow’s side, and leaning from the saddle whispered in his ear the word “Slankamen.” Would it pass them out as it had passed Maenck in? Barney scarcely breathed as he awaited the result of his experiment. The soldier brought his rifle to present and directed them to pass. With a sigh of relief that was almost audible the two rode into the village and the Austrian lines.
