Slept well again last night, but coccyx, rt. hip, and rt. ext. malleolus very sore. Eating rice three times a day. Moved today at about 10:00 A.M. to another building in prison walls. Moved back from here to original bullding at
about 4:00 P.M. Washed my clothes today. Held sick call from 1:00 to 4:00 P.M. for entire prison camp. Am cutting possessions to very minimum and eating canned food as fast as possible to decrease carrying load. Rumor we will move again tomorrow. Never thought I would be a jailbird in Bilibid Prison. Wish war would end soon.
