When Elie was a child he had a home in England
where he lived with his mother, father, and younger sister. They were a rich Christian family. Moshe never believed in Christianity
and made it well known to his family. They gave him a choice; he could follow Christianity or he could move out of his families
house.
As soon as he was old enough he moved out
of their house and ended up in Sighet. Although he was poor and homeless, he prefered this lifestyle to being forced into
practicing a religion he doesn't believe in. He lives in the synagogue where he spends most of his time studying Judiasm.
When Moshe was deported at the begining
of the Holocaust he went to Poland and witnessed hundreds of Jews being exicuted. During the middle of the night he escaped
and made his way back to Sighet where he told the Jews what he had witnessed and warned them that the Nazis intended on doing
the same thing to them. No one believed Moshe and he was so upset that he left and was never heard from again. Many people
thought that he had been recaptured by the Nazis and killed with so many other Jews.
