- Notes
- "The same late afternoon, while we were standing near the ramp of the 'Hortensja', I saw the first train with the deported Piotrkover people [to Treblinka]. For some reason the train was moving very slowly and I noticed many resigned familiar faces at the little windows. My eyes were glancing nervously around, to see if any of my family members were on it. I hoped to see them for the last time. Suddenly I heard a shrill cry from a window: 'Chil, Chil! Watch over Moshe. Take care of him. Avenge all of us. Chil....' By the time I sadly nodded that I would, Sarah Leber disappeared from view with her anguished cry. She was a friend of mine and wanted me to keep an eye on her younger brother, the only member of her whole family that remained working at the Hortensja."
