„I remember going from the field through the Polish colony and to the Gravediggers. When I opened the door, everything froze: the whole family was screwed up! The same picture was with the Kozieradzki family, except that the baby was impaled” there, writes WM Dawydiuk, a resident of Wólka Lubieszowska in the Museum in Łobna.
