And it seemed that he was quite a nice man.

Well, unfortunately, the Germans found out that I, my sister and mother were registered for residency in Warsaw
-
and in December 1939 or in January 1940 they resettled us to Warsaw.
-
My grandma, aunt and cousin, Hanka, were allowed to live there till about 1941,
-
when they were relocated to a neighbouring estate of Orszymowo.
-
This was also a small manor house.
-
Unfortunately, the barn got burnt and the Germans suspected my aunt that she had told her niece Hanka to set this fire.
-
They simply made up this version to lock her up.
-
Maybe it was a revenge of Mr Ertbruger, because my aunt was a very beautiful woman
-
and he must have had some hopes that this acquaintance would develop into something serious.

Well, unfortunately, my aunt was a great patriot. She detested the Germans.
-
She was little diplomatic and her feelings showed.

She paid with her life for that. Because they sent her to Fordon [near Bydgoszcz/Bromberg],
-
first they sentenced her to death for inciting a kid to burn a barn.
-
We wrote to Hitler pleading for pardon and Hitler gave her a commuted life sentence,
-
but she was immediately deported from Fordon to Oświęcim [Auschwitz], where she stayed for three days at most.
