Summary/Abstract: Two Romanians, one of whom was a gendarme, renounced honor and dignity, being drawn by the mirage of big financial gains. They were convinced to blow up railways, bridges, and trains with Romanian and Russian soldiers, but they were discovered, arrested and sentenced to death. Their execution was public and was a parable for all those who had such intentions.
