A PRISONER OF THE KHALEEFA
the Khaleefa said, "El boomi mahhgaad — Abdulla Neufeld ogud? Khallee ossbur." ("The fool did not stop — when he had the chance to escape. Will Neufeld? Let him wait a bit.") This was the second time the poor fellow had cost me my liberty. There is no doubt that the man was murdered for the sake of his food or money, for his remains were found later, on the road between Khartoum and El Fun.
