Chinthu choyamba chimene chinatikhudza kwambiri pamene tinalowa chinali phokoso (makamaka makina) ndi fungo lonyansa. Choyamba, tinasonyezedwa mmene ng’ombe zimaphedwera. Iwo anatulukira mmodzimmodzi kuchokera m’zogulitsiramo n’kukwera m’njira yopita kupulatifomu yachitsulo yokhala ndi magawo aatali. Bambo wina yemwe anali ndi mfuti yamagetsi anatsamira pa mpanda n’kuombera nyamayo pakati pa maso. Zimenezi zinamudabwitsa kwambiri moti chilombocho chinagwa pansi.
Kenako makoma a kholalo anatukuka, ndipo ng’ombeyo inagubuduzika n’kutembenukira kumbali yake. Ankaoneka kuti wachita mantha, ngati kuti minofu yonse ya m’thupi mwake yachita kunjenjemera. Munthu mmodzimodziyo anagwira phazi la bondo la ng’ombeyo ndi unyolo ndipo, pogwiritsa ntchito makina onyamulira magetsi, anaikweza m’mwamba mpaka mutu wa ng’ombe wokha unatsala pansi. Kenako anatenga chingwe chachikulu cha waya, chomwe, tinatsimikiziridwa, palibe mphamvu yodutsa, ndikuyiyika mu dzenje pakati pa maso a nyama, yopangidwa ndi mfuti. Tinauzidwa kuti mwa njira imeneyi kugwirizana pakati pa khosi ndi msana wa nyamayo kumasweka, ndipo imafa. Nthawi zonse munthu akalowetsa waya muubongo wa ng’ombeyo, inkamenya n’kumakana ngakhale kuti inkaoneka kuti yakomoka kale. Kangapo konse pamene tinali kuonerera opaleshoni imeneyi, ng’ombe sizinadabwitsidwe kotheratu, zikukankha, kugwa kuchokera papulatifomu, ndipo mwamunayo anayenera kutenganso mfuti yamagetsi. Ng'ombeyo italephera kuyenda, idakwezedwa kotero kuti mutu wake unali 2-3 mapazi kuchokera pansi. Kenako mwamunayo anakulunga mutu wa nyamayo n’kuidula pakhosi. Pamene anachita zimenezi, mwazi unatuluka ngati kasupe, ndipo unasefukira chirichonse chozungulira, kuphatikizapo ife. Mwamuna yemweyo adadulanso miyendo yakutsogolo m'mawondo. Wantchito wina anadula mutu wa ng’ombe yopindidwa mbali imodzi. Munthu amene anaima pamwamba, pa nsanja yapadera, anali kusenda khungu. Kenaka mtembowo unatengedwa mopitirira, kumene thupi lake linadulidwa pakati ndipo zamkati - mapapo, m'mimba, matumbo, ndi zina zotero - zinagwa. Tinadabwa kaŵirikaŵiri pamene tinawona mmene ana a ng’ombe aakulu, okhwima ndithu anagwa mmenemo., chifukwa pakati pa anthu amene anaphedwa panali ng’ombe zitatsala pang’ono kutenga mimba. Wotitsogolera ananena kuti milandu yotereyi ndi yofala kuno. Kenako munthuyo anacheka nyamayo m’mphepete mwa msana ndi macheka a unyolo, ndipo inalowa mufiriji. Tili m’bwaloli munangophedwa ng’ombe zokha, koma m’makola munalinso nkhosa. Nyama, zikuyembekezera tsogolo lawo, zimasonyeza momveka bwino zizindikiro za mantha - zinali kutsamwitsa, kupukuta maso, kutuluka thovu mkamwa mwawo. Tinauzidwa kuti nkhumba zimagwidwa ndi magetsi, koma njirayi si yoyenera ng'ombe., chifukwa kupha ng'ombe, pamafunika mphamvu yamagetsi kotero kuti magazi amaundana ndipo nyama imakutidwa ndi madontho akuda. Anabweretsa nkhosa, kapena zitatu nthawi imodzi, n’kuziikanso patebulo. Kumero kwake kunadulidwa ndi mpeni wakuthwa kenaka analendewera ndi mwendo wake wakumbuyo kuti magazi ake atuluke. Zimenezi zinatsimikizira kuti kachitidweko sikadzayenera kubwerezedwanso, apo ayi wopha nyamayo anayenera kumalizitsa pamanja nkhosayo, kugwetsa pansi ndi ululu pansi m’thamanda la magazi akeake. Nkhosa zotere, zomwe sizikufuna kuphedwa, zimatchedwa pano "mitundu yovuta"Kapena"opusa opusa“. M’makolako, ogula nyama anayesa kugwetsa ng’ombe yaing’onoyo. Nyamayo inamva mpweya woyandikira imfa ndipo inakana. Mothandizidwa ndi ma pikes ndi ma bayonet, anam’kankhira kutsogolo m’cholembera chapadera, mmene anam’baya jekeseni kuti nyamayo ikhale yofewa. Patangopita mphindi zochepa, nyamayo inakokedwa m’bokosilo mokakamiza, ndipo chitseko chinatsekeredwa. Apa anangodabwa ndi mfuti yamagetsi. Miyendo ya nyamayo inamangidwa, chitseko chinatseguka ndipo chinagwera pansi. Waya analowetsedwa mu dzenje pamphumi (pafupifupi 1.5 cm), opangidwa ndi kuwombera, ndipo anayamba kuzungulira izo. Nyamayo inagwedezeka kwa kanthawi, ndipo kenako inakhala chete. Atayamba kumangirira unyolo pamyendo wakumbuyo, chilombocho chinayambanso kukankha ndi kukana, ndipo chipangizo chonyamuliracho chinachinyamulira nthawi yomweyo pamwamba pa dziwe la magazi. Nyamayo yaundana. Wogulitsa nyama anamuyandikira atanyamula mpeni. Ambiri adawona kuti mawonekedwe a ng'ombeyo adayang'ana pa butchala iyi; maso a nyamayo anatsatira njira yake. Nyamayo inakana osati mpeni usanalowemo, komanso ndi mpeni m’thupi mwake. Kunena zoona, zimene zinkachitikazo sizinali zongochitika zokha basi—nyamayo inali kukana mwachikumbumtima. Anamubaya ndi mpeni kawiri, ndipo anakhetsa magazi mpaka kufa. Ndaona kuti imfa ya nkhumba yogwidwa ndi magetsi imakhala yowawa kwambiri. Choyamba, iwo adzakhala ndi moyo womvetsa chisoni, atatsekeredwa m'makola a nkhumba, ndiyeno n'kuwatengera mofulumira mumsewuwu kuti akakumane ndi tsoka. Usiku woti aphedwe, amene amakhala m’khola la ng’ombe, mwina ndi usiku wosangalatsa kwambiri m’miyoyo yawo. Apa amatha kugona pa utuchi, amadyetsedwa ndikutsukidwa. Koma kungowona mwachidule kumeneku ndi komaliza. Kukuwa komwe amapanga akagwidwa ndi magetsi ndikomveka komvetsa chisoni kwambiri.
