not look anymore, but
slumped my head forward
against my chest, my eyes
gazing unfocused at the stone
floor.
Sometime later I felt myself
put onto a sack and pulled
along the floor. I was pulled
roughly down the stone steps,
each one jarring my ribs with
increasing pain. The pain ac-
tually seemed to reawaken
my senses, because by the
time I reached the cell door I
felt more coherent, more con-
scious of my surroundings. I
was dragged in through the
barred door and heard the
door clang shut behind me.
I awakened early the next
morning to the sound of
clanking metal and bootsteps.
Several Germans had entered
the cell and were ordering
people to their feet, jabbing at
them with the muzzles of
their guns. About eight
women were pushed outside
the cell, and the rest of us
were left alone. I tried to pull
myself into a sitting position
which took me quite a while
to do. I had to move very slow-
ly so as not to jar my ribs.
I could hear sounds coming
from the courtyard. There
was a small window in our
cell but it was too high, so we
couldn't look outside. The
sounds I heard were terrify-
ing. There were the cries of
people and shouts in German;
but even more chilling, I could
also hear snarling dogs. Soon
the air was filled with the
blended sound of barking
dogs and the shrieks of
human beings.
Some time passed and it
became quiet outside. Three
women were returned to the
cell. Each was dragged in and
thrown on the floor; not one
had had the strength to walk
by herself. Cellmates moved
forward to help, but the poor
unfortunates cried out at the
touch of a hand on their
ravaged bodies. Their arms
and legs were torn by dog
bites. We didn't have to ask
about the others; we knew
they had died. Two of these
survivors also died during the
day.
Throughout the day, every
few hours more people were
taken out to the courtyard.
Many were torn by the dogs,
others were beaten severely.
Some were brought back to
the cell; many were not.
There was very little talking;
people were immobilized by
fear and suffering.
On the third day of my im-
prisonment, a German guard
brought in a bucket of water
and a ladle. "Drink all you
want," he told us. "When you
want more, call out." The
water was cold, with pieces of
ice floating in it; we drank it
