Full Testimony | The Germans kindly announced that whoever is sick may get on a cart and drive to the station. Since my mother had trouble walking, she got on the cart [...] and drove off. When we got to the station, we were surprised that the carts were not there. We were getting more and more anxious while waiting, when a few Jews came and told us that they were coming back from a forest in Olkusz, where they had buried 300 people executed by the Germans and finished off with shovels by Polish youths. |
