Tadeusz Filipczak, an inhabitant of the settlement of Chrobrów in the district of Łuck: „We stayed in Torczyn for about a month, where more refugees from Polish villages gathered. However, it was not possible to stay there longer, therefore, under the escort of the Germans, the column of Poles who survived the slaughter was moved to Lutsk. It seemed safe in this large city, but there were problems not only with housing, but also with feeding a large number of refugees from various parts of Volhynia. Our family, as well as others, left their farms unattended, but tidy until the last day of their stay, i.e. sown with cereals. Therefore, during the harvest, my family decided to come back for the harvest. My grandfather and grandmother were also in the group of people who left. The harvesters had been working smoothly all day, and it seemed as though everything would be fine. However, when everyone was coming back, my grandparents stayed a while longer to finish the harvest. When they finished, they went back alone, but they didn't travel far. The Banderites surprised them on the way. Grandfathers threw a log onto the cart, sitting on it, and the grandmothers tied it to the cart and dragged it. When they reached the farm they both threw them into a well, they were probably already dead. It was not an isolated incident, at that time the hunt for Poles was already going on in the whole of Volhynia in an open manner and in the worst form”.
