'Judge Martin is being severly punished with 2 bashings and
4 days in front of of the guard house at attention for looking thru

the attap fence when working on the bund. The ditch wall is

collapsing in many places. Return on staff officers and COs is

causing much speculation. Arrived her 3 months ago today. How long more?

THURSDAY MAY 10

Weighed 68 kilos. Reading "God-Bye Mr Chips" by James Hilton

and "The Earth is the Lords" by Caldwell. The Japs held a full

Anno. Smoking forbidden all day until after tenkoe as a punishment.

Two masses. All sermons are censored. Heard some

FRIDAY MAY 18

Yarned with Capt Peter Golden of the Shanghai Judicial

police. Camp Comdt asked a POW what would happen if he was

made a P.O.W. He apparently took some notice of our last letter

and today called in the seven officers to ask discuss the matter.

SUNDAY MAY 20

going up alone and are coming back with rolling stock. Some

troops went past during the night. Workman of NFI was one

properly at attention during tenkoe. Local brass band seemed

to be playing Jap troops through the town this evening.

WEDNESDAY MAY 23

Martin is now known as a "Judge of Lang [[?]]". My acne

is getting worse. Krungteb is the Thai name for Bangkok. The old

capital was Ayeuthia. Chapri is the family name of the present King.

the [[duve?]] rings, and in S. America, Syria and Far East and cases of the [[Co?]]

disciplinary squad, and treatment of renegades.

 

 

 

SATURDAY MAY 26

Yarned yesterday with Kept B SLUIMERS of the AID

[[?]]. Siren sounded 5 alerts & all delay quick [[succession?]]

Told that the reason why the 2 POWs are still being punished is because

of the facetious action of some of the troops on tenkoe when ordered to speak louder

Strained my big toe in a fall.

SUNDAY MAY 27

Mass & H.C. Yarned with Capt Clements of RAOC (Workshop) who lived at

the Rio Tinto mines near Seville from 1926-40. He saw quite a lot of the war.

Two officers released from guardhouse, one with a damaged eye.

MONDAY MAY 28

All pumpers at the pump-house were stood to attention from 0900

to 1500 hrs for not saluting the acting OO (WO Mura). Their skins were badly

burnt. Drawer was badly beaten by the CC & the Adj's with a dummy rifle

and lodged in the cell together with Ransom and another who were

all beaten by hand by the O. Sgt. The real reason for the

trouble was that this 3rd man just mentioned had refused a week

 ago to carry water for 2 Nip Medical orderlies and Ransom and Drawer were involved
Played bridge with Evan Hamilton. Attended a good variety concert.

TUESDAY MAY 29

Golden told me more of his experiences. Started extra [[?]] 40

FRIDAY JUN 1

All officers are confined to hut as from 1400 hrs and henceforth can

only leave to go to the latrine, to bath, or to collect food. At night we

can only leave by the one exit. The reason given is that the CC saw cigarette

butts on the floor of the hut during an inspection about 2400hrs. We are

being treated as criminals, but cannot understand why. Several bombers

visited Kanburi and dropped 5 bombs on the bridge area. The alert

brought us out of our huts. Also officers are being made to work on the bund.

and also do the last shift of nightwatchman

every morning. Drawer is still in the cells.

A Dutch officer was stood in front of the
