ing disorder I left the crowd OF
onlookers and went toward the
office. On the way I met Lyskin.
He seemed to notice my exhausted
appearance, for he stopped me and
said that he might use me to help
him out with some special work at
the office, and ordered me to go
there.
There was plenty of activity in
the office, people were going to
and fro, the telephone rang, type
writer's hammered away. A large
cast.iron stove in the corner
heated the room and was con.
stantly fed with wood. 1t spread
a pleasant warmth through the
office. My brain was foggy and
refused to work, figures were
all jumbled in front of my eyes.
I repeatedly fell asleep over my
work. It progressed very slowly.
Toward 2 o'clock my job was fin
ished. but I decided to take full
advantage of my day Of rest and
did not hasten to hand over my
papers. Instead. I peacefully sat
over them, smoking the tobacco
which I had procured.
That day I again had to use
brute force to obtain my dinner.
After dinner I felt an imperative
need to lie down somewhere, no
matter where, just to lie down,
stretch out and sleep. I carefully
inspected all the shelves, though
I knew in advance that could not
find any room on them.
Finally I found an empty space
under the fartheSt corner shelf.
I crept into it and stretched out.
It felt like a coffin. 1t was dark
and damp. S-Cold air was blowing
in through the cracks between the
floor boards; consequently had
constantly to turn from one side
to the other. When the occupants
of the shelf above me turned in
their sleep could feel rubbish,
bread-crumbs and dirt fall upon
me through the crevices between
the loosely iointed Shelt-boardS.
To add to my misery I was at
tackled by vernin, which were very
plentiful in the barracks. Luckily
there were no bedbugs among
them, thanks to the low tempera-
ture,
GETS REST
But I had no luck even in this
remote corner under the shelves.
Very soon was aroused from
sleep by a warm liquid dripping
down on me. Above me a group
Of peasants were drinking tea. I
knew from experience that tea
drinking in the barracks is a
leisurely pastime and decided that
the best thing could do was to
leave my new abode.
For half an hour I wandered
about the barracks in a sleepy
daze, trying to find a little room
for myself amidst the sleeping
bodies, but with i'll success. How
ever, having decided to stretch out
and sleep at any cost, I wedged
myself in between two SleeperS
and paid no attention to the abuse
which was shoWered upon me.
I was lying soldier-fashion, on
my stomach with my left arm as
a headrest. The gangsters on the
upper shelves were splitting down
freely and were unconcernedly
throwing cigarette butts and other
rubbish upon the sleepers below.
When they had to come down they
jumped right on top of me, but
paid no attention, as if it did not
concern me at all. All I wanted
was to be allowed to stretch out
and sleep, sleep under any cir.

, It was the night before Christ
mas of the year 1929. 1t is the lot
of but few unfortUnates to spend
Christmas Eve so dismally. My
thoughts sped far away to my
wife and daughter, to my old
mother, who was preparing for
Christmas surrounded by her
family in far-away California. She
had never been told of my mis-
fortunes, but believed that I was
taking part in a profitable expe-
dition to q remote district from
which I could send no news. Then
all thoughts vanished. In the morn
ing I was stiff all over, but did
not feel the mortal fatigue Of the
night before.
After porridge we were ordered
to get ready with our belong
ings." At last. Everything in the
barracks came into motion, people
dressed, packed, bustled about.
We would have to walk about
35 kilometers. We were given the
choice of carrying our belongings
on our backs or else leaving them
in charge of the storekeeper and
having them sent on at the first
opportunity. The majority OF us
chose the first alternative, afraid
to lose our last belongings.
Out in the yard we formed in a
square for the roll-cal. Those
whose names were called had to
step out of the gates and form on
the other side. About SO soldiers,
who were to act as our convoy,
stood around us. The roll-call pro-
ceeded slowly, it was more than
an hour and a half before it
reached me. It was showing. Our
column was standing in the road
outside the gates and we were
gradually wrapped in a blanket
of snow. Finally the last prisoner
passed through the gate and the
column prepared to depart. We
numbered about 800.
The commanders, Monakhov,
Bukhaltev and others, came up to
see us off.

he added: "Pretty lOw-grade

Suddenly Bukhaltzev saw me.
