ABSTRACT
One Saturday evening [8 August 1941] gentiles from nearby villages came to our town and said . . . that the Germans were killing Jews – we’d better fl ee, disperse and hide . . . We asked grandfather: What shall we do, run away? He consulted with some of his acquaintances, the rabbi, the ritual slaughterer, and other important people, and then said not to run away, to remain where we are, nothing will happen. Perhaps young people will be taken to work, but killing – it can’t be . . .
