:40:03
Then we were taken prisoner.
:40:07
They put us
on a ship to lndia.
:40:12
From Bombay we were taken
by train to Semerpor.
:40:16
We worked there as building
labourers.
:40:19
l was so weak that..
:40:22
l couldn't even carry
two bricks on my back.
:40:25
Even that was too much.
:40:28
The English guard kept shouting:
''Come on Joe, come on Joe.''
:40:34
Actually, if we could feed
ourselves properly we would...
:40:37
wipe out the English.
But we had no strength.
:40:44
Most of us died of
starvation or disease.
:40:57
-Those damned jackals are
down by the stream again.
:41:01
They're cunning creatures.
They hide during the day.
:41:04
They must be hungry to
come down to the stream.
:41:12
Whether it was luck or fate
which brought me back, l don't know.
:41:18
l came back safely
:41:21
but l had nothing.
:41:24
What's there to do?
:41:31
:41:34
:41:37
:41:44
:41:46
:41:50
Perhaps it would have been better
if you hadn't come back.
:41:53
You returned and then what?
Did you get a reward for it?
:41:57
lt's all in vain.
-Saffet.
