When he turned round to go on with the
work the aide had fled and never appeared again.
I met Dr. Churchin. He is one of the best Serbs I have yet met, a
philosopher. He was looking after the English units in Kragujevatz and I
learnt did it excellently, and with a devotion to his duties altogether
unusual. He told me that I had been nominated an honorary captain; but I
am under the impression that it is an honour I cannot by national law
accept.
We went in the afternoon in the car towards Rudnik to examine the one
which had broken down. I soon saw that nothing could be done on the
spot, and ordered it to continue its "bullocky" progress to the camp. In
the evening went off to the Government motor school, where I found my
old friend Ristich and Colonel Derrock; both these men are first-class
Serbs--jolly, keen and friendly.
October 5th. Our car not being finished, Mr. Berry and Sister Hammond
went back to Vrntze in a car lent by Colonel Derrock. I was to stay till
all the repairs were completed on ours.
