Lalonde was paid one mark a day and says the farmer used him well, only he was housed in a brick barn, with horses on one side of his "room" and dows on the other and this was the most unpleasant part of his experience at Rugen, The first five months of his im- prisonment were spent at Douai Camp, where the prisoners were giv en three meals a day, but oh, such meals!
