"The food that baa been given us lately
waa not (K to be fed to a dog." said the
prisoner, "and In my pan I found a
piece of green Ireer, a nail and three
strings. 1 could not eat sny of It. The
other boys suffered about the tame.
After the dishes had been removed we
decided to end our miserable existence.
