The Ukrainians hijacked a horse cart with 4 Poles (including a woman) and no trace of them has ever been seen. „On 7.10 the following persons were kidnapped from Comfort [Dolina] to Wełdzirz: 1. Weiss Marian, secretary of the forest division; 2. Tchaikovsky Zacharjasz, an official of the Forest District; 3. Kazimiera Wowkonowicz, an officer of the Forest District; 4.

All four were going at 17.30 from Wełdzirz to Comfort. They were attacked between Wełdzirz and Comfort and taken together with the cart and the horse”.
