The first official report deals with the Bolshevik atrocities in Wes- enberg and Dorpat. The graves of those murdered at Wesenberg were opened on Jan, 17 in the presence of a number of high officials, including, the Town Governor, The vicinity of the graves showed with what brutality 'the BoIshevike had executed their vietims.

The authori- ties had these shocking relies of the Rea Terror photographed, and the photograplis which your correspon- dent has seen will be an enduring. re- minder of Bolshevik infamy. Among them are a doctor, a priest, a soldier, a merchant, a railway official, and a shomaker, a selection which testifies to Bolshevik impartiality in at least one respect. The secondograve open- ed also contained sixteen victims. The third and largest. of the graves was opened on Jan. 18, It was four metres long, two metres deep, and fill- ed with -corpses, says the official re- port. It contained fifty bodies, of N'hich torty-One were recognized. Five least were women, one Jeanette armless Wraegd. of Wesenberg, ano_ her a sister of Mercy.
