Cyprienne: I pleaded with them to stop. But they continued to beat him. I kept arguing with them, begging them to stop beating him. I promised them that they will suffer the same fate as him.

Joseph: They brought out a hoe with which to kill me. But she kept arguing with them.

Cyprienne: When my arguments failed to stop them, I rushed to the local army barracks and asked the soldiers to come and stop the killing. They came and helped me save him. I brought him home and I gave him something to eat. Before he left, he told me his name and where he was working.

Joseph: Early the next day, she came to the home of my boss.

Cyprienne: I was very suspicious of his boss. They ordered him to go to buy beer for them without giving them neither money and nor a crate. It was like they setting him up to be killed.

Joseph: "How can you send him to Musaga," she asked him, "when you know how bad the situation is?" "What happened?" My boss asked. I had not told him what had happened to me. "Yesterday, Joseph was going to be killed," she told him. "How come you dared to send him to Second Avenue by himself? Did you not want to him to come back home alive?"

This is what happened to me. That is all.

I do not know how to thank Cyprienne. I am still alive due to her. Otherwise I would have died.
