How does one reference the object of one sentence as the object
of another sentence.  eg An officer hit a boy.
If I see the action I say <loDHom qIp yaS 'e' vIlegh>
If I see the officer I say <loDHom qipbogh yaS vIlegh>
How do I say I see the boy whom the officer hit?  I would think I
could topicalize <loDHom> in the second sentence, qar'a'.
<loDHom'e' qipbogh yaS vIlegh>
