- 
and leave the next morning. Slowly,
 - 
avoiding the main roads and the villages, we went up to the hills.
 - 
We reached Nironi, Vairo, Palanzano,
 - 
all those villages that we'd heard about but had no idea where they were.
 - 
If we asked people they would all say:
 - 
"No, here we don't know anything, we don't see anything,
 - 
we don't even know who the rebels are ..."
 - 
So slowly, slowly we proceeded uphill and were quite desperate because we had lost ...
 - 
We had some coins in our pocket but not many.
 - 
At night there always was a problem of where to spend the night, at some peasant's house.
 - 
But it was dangerous because the fascists would come and get you.
 - 
So we arrived at Corniglio
 - 
and we met this lady who was sitting outside her house knitting.
 - 
We asked her: "Lady, we're looking for partisans, the rebels ..."
 - 
Up there they didn't even know who the partisans were and we didn't have a proper term for them, either.
 - 
So she said: "Look, there is a house up there, there is a man with some people,
 - 
I don't know what they're doing, I don't know if they're workers or somebody else.
 - 
If you want to go up and have a look ..."
 - 
So we went to see and in fact it was a group of rebels led by that man.
 - 
We said we wanted to join them and they welcomed us.
