Lost Identity

When the three men got closer they could tell it was the body of a man, but he showed no signs of life. His face was a terrible mess; it was completely covered with blood and rock from the road. The Rev. Smith knelt down and put his right hand to the side of the man's bloody neck, just below his jaw bone, held it there for a while, and then looked up, and said, "He has a pulse. It's real weak, but he's still alive."
