The train later on stopped at Kaschau which was a small town in Czechoslovakia, there a German officer told them to hand over all the gold and jewellery if they had any and then latter on threatened to shoot all of them like dogs if one of them went missing. In the cattle cars there was a woman, Mrs Schachter. She was in her mid fifties and was with her ten year-old son. Elie knew her well, she was a quiet woman, her husband was devoutly religious. On the third night, some were sleeping and some were setting squeezing each other Mrs Schachter started shout fire and claimed to see it, she was a prophetess and no one knew it nor believed her. She kept screaming and screaming and some even thought she was mad. When they had finally arrived in Birkenau after a scream the jews went to the window and saw fire,with the smell of burning flesh, then a man ordered them to get out, with a stick on his hand he strikes without
