    house one of them looked behind the door and say the notice -
    Father 144 years-
    Mother 39 years
    Three sons aged 11 years 9 years and 6 years
    He immediately raised the alarm and the officer ordered a search for the man 144 years of age having three children aged 11, 9 and 6. He was eventually found hiding under the bed and when he was brought out he explained the case to them and the British enjoying the joke gave him his liberty, while some of the boys who planned it were stripped to the shirt filling the trench.
