Uhrynów
In the second half of August 1943: „Polish Samoobrona with the Germans from Lutsk went to the Uhrynów estate, where there was a German post in this estate. The Germans announced that if they had horses and a carriage, they should go to Uhrynów for the harvest to gather bread for the winter and to feed the horses. Then as many as 300 people volunteered for this harvest, because everyone was afraid of hunger in the city, because in this year 1943 not much harvest was collected by this Ukrainian gang. And they went for two weeks, who had a scythe with a scythe, who had a sickle with a sickle, and in two weeks they harvested a lot of grain. Some of them got married, that is, they worked in the field, while others were on guard with rifles, but the Ukrainians took advantage of the fact that they had so much harvested and threshing grain loaded for their departure. When they gathered their strength, attacked the entire camp, they fought like this, they bounced all day. Whoever managed to escape to the estate, they saved themselves, and whoever was farther in the field, they killed, and so others hid in such fours, because they were made of brick, such apartments for workers, some four kilometers from the palace, many people hid there. My cousin with her husband and seven–month–old child also hid in this all fours. When the bandits got there, they searched all fours and found them sitting there on the ground, together 17 people and so they killed them all with daggers. My cousin was killed and my baby was untouched. After the bandits left, the Poles started to walk and collect the corpses from the field and one of the Ukrainians said that there were many killed on all fours, they came in and saw so many killed, and my cousin Jadzia (Demko – footnote S.Ż.) with Budek Kołodeskich is holding a child and the girl was sucking her breast and the mother was dead. She was probably still conscious when she was holding the baby with her hand, and it was sucking on the breast of the dead mother, and only this angel did not reach the dagger. There is only one tiny baby left. What a grief it is for grandparents for this child. They brought her to Lutsk and her grandmother raised an orphan and cried all her life until she finally died of cancer. It is located in Pasłęk in the cemetery because she lived there after the war. The Germans reported to Lutsk, more people armed with HMGs came. They loaded the grain where they had what, on carts, German cars, and under the escort of Self–Defense, they returned to Lutsk with a great loss of lives, because 45 people died, whom they buried near the palace in the park before they left. It has been rumored that the Ukrainians razed to the ground so that no one would ever find graves”. .

Uhrynów
I remember that Samoobrona Polska with the Germans from Lutsk went to the Uhrynów estate, where there was a German post in that estate. The Germans announced that if they had horses and a carriage, they should go to Uhrynów for the harvest to gather bread for the winter and to feed the horses. Then as many as 300 people volunteered for this harvest, because everyone was afraid of hunger in the city, because in this year 1943 not much harvest was collected by this Ukrainian gang. And they went for two weeks, who had a scythe with a scythe, who had a sickle with a sickle, and in two weeks they harvested a lot of grain. Some of them got married, that is, they worked in the field, while others were on guard with rifles, but the Ukrainians took advantage of the fact that they had so much harvested and threshing grain loaded for their departure. When they gathered their strength, attacked the entire camp, they fought like this, they bounced all day. Whoever managed to escape to the estate, they saved themselves, and whoever was farther in the field, they killed, and so others hid in such fours, because they were made of brick, such apartments for workers, some four kilometers from the palace, many people hid there.

When the bandits got there, they searched all fours and found them sitting there on the ground, together 17 people and so they killed them all with daggers. My cousin was killed and my baby was untouched. After the bandits left, the Poles started to walk and collect the corpses from the field and one of the Ukrainians said that there were many killed on all fours, they came in and saw so many killed, and my cousin Jadzia from Budki Kołodeskie was holding a baby by her breast and my mother was dead. She was probably still conscious when she was holding the baby with her hand, and it sucked the breast of the dead mother, and only this angel did not reach the dagger. There is only one tiny baby left. What a grief it is for grandparents for this child. They brought her to Lutsk and her grandmother raised an orphan and cried all her life until she finally died of cancer. It is located in Pasłęk in the cemetery because she lived there after the war.
