from night Elie Wiesel

From the text :

"When they came back, they told us that, in exchange for a gold watch, they had discovered that this was the last stop. We would be getting out here. Theere was a labor camp. Families would not be split up. Only the young people would go to work in the factories. The old men and invalids would be kept occupied in the fields. The barometer of confidence soared. Here was a sudden release from the terrors of the previous nights. We gave thanks to God" (24).
