Could he have been conscious?...Was he still alive?
Alive? He couldn't have been alive. Not with his head in the way it was.
I was told that he did not die at once.
He was quite dead.
But this sounds crazy. If he was killed at once, how could he have talked about me and this lady here after he was dead? Why didn't you say all this at the inquest?
It's better not to be mixed up in things like this.
Things like what?
I was not the only one who did not give evidence.
Who else?
Three men helped to carry your friend to the statue.
Kurtz, the Rumanian, and -
There was a third man. He didn't give evidence.
You don't mean the doctor?
No, no, no. He came later, after they carried him to the Josef statue.
What did this man look like?
I didn't see his face. He didn't look up. He was quite ordinary. He might have been just anybody.
Just anybody.
