Well we’d get that in the morning, same at dinner time, same at supper time. Sometimes you’d get a little bun, you’d have to pick the flies out of it. Some of the men there, they wasn’t men, they was skeletons. Some of them fell sick with beri-beri and diptheria. I worked a while when they started to fall sick there, I worked a while and they put me to help the fellows in the hospital and I used to give them, feed them with rice or whatever they brought us to give them. You see them die, yes. I slept between two of them in the hospital, one died on both sides of me and beside a lot more. Well, they couldn’t drink, or if they’d drink, they’d swell up.
