The edition also printed quite a few of old group photographs, some as early as 1936. I was excited to spot my uncle (see link in Chinese) in several group photos ranging from 1946 to 1951. One of the featured personnel was an "early revolutionary" by the name of Hong Huiyin (1910-1933). She studied in this school, then came back to teach. When she was a teacher and my mother a student, the teacher took the student on a school day one day, to cross the river (Nine Dragon River) to seek out another teacher's wife who, being unhappy, chose not to come back to her husband. My mother was given half a day's off from the school, and was treated a dinner at that teacher's wife's home. To this day, my mother was still very pleased with the deal. Any way, this early revolutionary Ms. Hong came out in the open when the Red army took Zhangzhou and Shima in 1932. She identified herself as a communist and went with the Red army to Jiangxi, the Red army base in the mountains. The next year, she was executed by the Red army in an inside-Party purge. She died aged 23. What a waste of human life! What a shame! I felt sorry for her and her parents. I felt sorry for that part of the unspoken Party history, so full of inside fighting and merciless killings. What a history! |
在毕业生名册录里，我找到了我认识的或知道的几代人的名字。上面也有妈妈（她毕业于1932年，第18 组）、我（1953?）、 弟弟（1960）。许多被遗忘了的同学的名字和音容，一个个浮现出来。在幸存的1946 到1951年的团体照里，我激动地找到叔叔庄林的慈祥的脸。他当时是这所小学的老师。百年校庆”纪念册的编辑们做了一件好事，一件有意义的事。他们把一百年，几代人的影子都浓缩在这些珍贵的黑白照片里。 洪徽音女士（1910-1933）在西湖小学读书和教书，并在1932年红军入漳并下到石码，进驻西湖小学时，跳了出来（以公开身份出现）。原来，她是共产党员。妈妈 说，本地人当时叫她（洪）“红军婆”。当时，洪是西湖小学的教师，而妈妈是这所学校的学生。有一次，一位先生的太太生气不回来，学校就派妈妈陪洪徽音到过溪去请“先生娘”回家。妈妈很高兴地回忆说，她不仅可以缺课半天，还在先生娘家吃了一顿饭。红军1933年离开时，洪徽音随军，却在“江西瑞金”“被党内左倾路线执行者杀害”。死时，洪徽音才23岁。真可惜了一条鲜活的生命。真替洪徽音本人和她的父母亲人惋叹。那个时代！那段历史！ |
The picture above, and the rest of photographs on this page, were all taken (photographed) by me from the "Hundredth Anniversary Commemorative Edition" done by Longhai West Lake Primary School (current name: Longhai Experimental School"). I was a student in this school from the 1st grade to the 5th, and had contributed a picture of myself and an article for its publication. In return, I received two copies of the Commemorative Edition, one containing pictures, the other the rosters of 100 years' worth of graduates. Both have a lot of history in them, and are extremely valuable, as I just found out, with help of a big magnifying glass. Of the three-hundred-year-old trees featured in the commemorative edition, my memoir happened to mention two. Of the names on the roster, I found my mother (graduate of 1932), myself (graduate of 1953), and my brother (graduate of 1960), together with a lot of others. Reading through the names of my former classmates, I seemed to see them alive instantly.Click
