The UPA murdered at least 182 Poles in the church and organist; about 100 people were burned in the church of St. Stanisław Bishop Martyr from 1756. „A moment later, the Bandera followers stormed the choir and murdered everyone they found there. They threw a few people onto the floor in the chapel. I heard screams, crying, moans of the murdered, and the smell of burning clothes and bodies. I saw a pregnant woman beating a Banderite. The woman was with a little girl, four or five years old. The child was crying terribly with fear. Before his eyes, the bandit stabbed his mother with a knife  […] The murdered Franek Kobylański from Pankowice was lying in the corridor. He had cut ears and nose, a cross cut across his forehead, and the skin of his” fingers was peeled off.

In May 1944 we were evacuated to Wiszniowiec. a city located on the Horyń River. All the inhabitants of the village of Palikrów were evacuated, because the front line of the Red Army and the German Army ran three kilometers away  […] One Sunday with my friends I went to the Horyń River to have a bath. Wesełiwka Street was the extension of Kwacziwka Street. We walked this way to the river. At one point, I noticed many people gathered on the property of the burned house. People gathered near the well that was in this area. As it turned out? A Russian soldier stood near the well, and in the well, the father of the Bandera follower, abandoned on ropes, murdered several Polish families and threw them into the well. One man shone a large mirror reflected by sunlight into the well. He was ordered to take out the bodies of murdered Poles lying there in the well. The first body pulled out belonged to a child about eleven or thirteen. The military doctor said it was a boy. The body was already in gradual decay. The boy had his feet cut off and his skull broken. His mother was kneeling next to him and she recognized her son. She was probably crying. The Ukrainian – the bandit's father – wanted to escape, but the soldier fired a rifle into the air and ordered him to return. I couldn't look any longer and left. While living in Wiszniowiec, we had the opportunity to see the ruins of a burnt Polish church. We were guided by a Polish teacher from Palikrów, Tadeusz Pludra. Before the war, he taught my brother Władzia and my sister Józia. Then my sister Józia, Tadeusz Pludra, his niece Wisia and I were present. We stood in front of the main entrance to the church. The front door was burned down, only the remains of charred wood hung at the hinges. The stench emanated from inside. Mr. Tadeusz Pludra said that these were the remains of decaying unburned bodies. The view was also depressing when we looked at Nowy Wiszniowiec behind the Horyń River. Another Polish church was visible, also burned. His white plasters above the windows were streaked with black. I wasn't there anymore.
