Sonia was also there as it was a very hot day and the cows did not want to stay at the grazing lands so were taken home.

Natka who was very caring and hospitable invited both kids to the dining room,

took them by the table, gave them bread, milk from fridge, and while children were eating,

the Lithuanians and Germans came.

All of them, except Sonia, had documents

and Sonia was scared. She recognized one Lithuanian who used to come to her parents` shop

to do shopping and look after her.

Did he recognize her? We do not know.

Nobody knows that but Sonia was scared

and in the evening Jadzia Pluchocianka came to me,

because I think that night Sonia was staying at Pluchocianka´s, and said that Sonia begs to take her back to her uncle,

she prefers sitting in that shelter in the forests to staying in this nice accommodation.

We had to take Sonia back to her uncle.

Mr. Nitson wrote a card to me saying he wants to thank me, that he, his brother and Sonia were alive.
