“ユネスコ記憶遺産に登録申請した「通州事件」から“
その６、「通州事件」遭難生存者（４人）の証言
２）死の通州脱出記―同盟通信社 安藤利男
「通州事件」に遭難しながらも、九死に一生を得た人々もいました。生存者のその後の証言がいくつもありますが、ユネスコ記憶遺産に登録申請したものは、４人の証言です。
今回は、同盟通信社北支特派員の安藤利男記者の手記です。事件の前々日の２７日に通州に入り、冀東政府の殷汝耕長官に取材したりしていました。市内の近水楼に宿泊していたところ、２９日早朝事件に遭い、保安隊につかまり、処刑場に引き立てられていかれましたが、刑場の塀に飛びついて逃れ、奇跡的に北京にまでたどり着いた方です。
手記は『日本評論』１９３７年９月号に最初掲載されたものです。

“Tongzhou Massacre” Series 6
Testimonial record of survivors (4)
2) My Escape from Tongzhou(Tungchow), the City of Death
By Ando Toshio, Domei News Agency / North China correspondent
This is the sixth of a series of articles pertaining to the Tongzhou Massacre, which has been submitted for inclusion in UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register.
Luckily, there were survivors of the furious Chinese Peace Preservation Corps attack. The testimonies of four survivors have been included in documents submitted to UNESCO.
The second one was written by Mr. Ando Toshio, Domei News Agency/ North China correspondent. He entered Tongzhou City on July 27, 1937. He interviewed Yin Rugeng, the leader of Jidong Government. He witnessed the uprising which began before the daybreak of 29th from his lodge, the Kinsuiro. He tried to hide in the attic but was discovered and dragged out to the grounds where the Chinese were executing the Japanese. But, with quick judgment, he untied himself from the ropes, escaped and miraculously survived. He has written about his experience in several magazines, one of which was an article titled “Escape from Death in Tongzhou,” published in the September 1937 issue of Evaluation Japan.
