Second part of an interview with a man named Chaim (Haim) Isakovits (?) in Baia Mare / Siget, recorded 20 May 2013 on the way to Ukraine. Kerler introduces the session and the speaker, who talks about his youth as a bookkeeper in a firm, then the Hungarian laws of 1940, labor camp and the war. At the end the speakers turn to remarks about Hungarian and Romanian and a book he presented.
Kerler opens the second part of the interview, giving the date, 20 May 2013, and naming the interviewee as Chaim Isakovits (?). A short exchange follows, partly in Hungarian and Romanian, about how to go on, and the informant mentions he is busy because his family is coming.
The informant recalls working at about eighteen in Târgu Mureș (?) as an employee of a firm, with a good bookkeeper as his guide. After three months he was paid an amount of about five hundred, which surprised him, and he describes the firm (Diamantstein and Fischer, two Jews, dealing in building materials and iron goods) and his work keeping its accounts.
He describes the war: in 1940 the Hungarians arrived with new laws, mostly against the Jews, and he was sent to a labor camp. Jews were then sent to Ukraine, where German, Hungarian and Romanian armies were present, and he calls it hell, with long hours of work and very poor care.
Aside about whether a woman present understands Yiddish, with remarks that the informant also comes from Budapest and learned a little Hungarian, and that Romanian is not understood.
The informant begins to mention a visit to a house (?) and a society where he presented his book and the director bought sixty copies (this continues past the end of the file).
