Sat 28 Awoke well after sunrise had remainder
condensed milk & our half biscuits - still in two minds as
to go onto Muntock or come back - decided to wait until some
result of visit to campon hid glass & pillows in case malays
visit hut during our absence - had a couple of cigarettes & started out
looked back felt last time Id be seeing the hut - all looked.
peaceful enough - arrived at campon no one in sight - [[knocked]]
on [[door]] - old malay answered would have nothing to do ċ us
All we could understand was "Muntock" - returned back
½ mile followed by a couple of malay children & a few minutes
later by a malay waited until they caught up ċ us - malay spoke
[[?]] - said he was a [[?]] advised to go to Muntock - left us
Had a cigarette lay down & thought & thought & thought & finally made
up my mind - [[?]] decided to go on & get it over rather than
[[starve?]] back on the beach - carried out [[?]] [[?]]
[[?]] had a wash & general straightening up at stream -
walked through campon many faces at the window few smiling
mostly unsmiling - gone some distance joined by 2 malays & a few
[[?]] good Eng. - told us have to go to concentration camp - women
[[?]] there alright if one moment injured (slight sinking of bayonets)
told us Singapore had fallen & passed by ċ fruit stopped [[?]] &
get more [[hungatams]] notified them down - malay left us & raided
another bag to get a couple of bananas each - just passing
through another campon when sound of motor horn blowing
furiously automatically stepped to one side then ċ a sickening
shock realized the only ones driving around in wars would
be Japs - Car pulled up driven by Malay - 2 Japs jumped out one ċ
revolver other ċ rifle pointed same at us - lifted our hands -
our pockets searched much chattering but didnt know a
word - the most disreputable of two spoke few words
in Eng. told to enter car one ċ rifle in back ċ us - some fish
& bananas on floor indicated we would like some - agreed
wolfed down several bananas - asked many questions [[?]]
going on Is - where were we going to - Nationality - [[?]]
why were we going to Muntock - drove along winding narrow
streets ċ much blowing of horn.
