...that it would take more time than anyone had thought for the President to recover his full strength. Nonetheless, Johnson no longer winced with pain when he walked. The day after his first stiff quarter-mile outing in the hospital grounds, he ventured outside for a 1½-mile stroll and cheerfully shook hands with passersby. He stopped to chat with Mrs. Margaret Pisapia of Silver Spring, Md., who told him: "You look wonderful." "I'm doing O.K.," he replied, "for an old man."

Instead of hurling themselves at the army, the Juba rebels ambushed a lone sergeant out for an evening stroll, sawed off the top of his head, emasculated him, and stuck the amputated part in his mouth. The Arab garrison went berserk. Its troops exploded into the street, firing wildly at everything that moved. They cordoned off the black districts along the Nile, sent four-man assassination parties down every street, setting fire to the thatched native huts and shooting down their occupants as they emerged.
