All went well with us through the tunnel until we reached the trapdoor in the casemate at the end of our tunnel, which we were to ascend through to the casemate above. When we attempted to remove the door we found, to our consternation, that it was weighted down by some very heavy weight. It was a dilemma we had not 172 THE IMMORTAL SIX HUNDRED counted on. We knew we could not cut through another wall by daylight, so we concluded to force up that door at all risks. Four or five of us got under ...it, pushing with our hands and heads until Dave Prewitt could get the poker under the edge of the door. When he pried down on the poker he started the heavy body on the door to moving.
