I went to my uncle, because he was in charge of her affairs.

And then, though he was kind enough when I first saw him, and promised to help me, I was arrested.

All my papers were taken away, and all my money.

And he brought me to Virballen, after I had been kept in a sort of prison for three or four weeks.

There I was taken off the train for Berlin and put across the border, without any money or passports.
