Lithuanian officials help Stefania to hide people
-
There were people who helped during those German-Lithuanian times.
-
If I am saying bad things about Lithuanians, because they were very cruel to the Poles,
-
but there were two very good people in Niemenczyn.
-
It was the village leader Mr. Baučius who was sent from Lithuania,
-
I guess he could speak Polish, even though it was not good.
-
The second one was Mr. Žemaitis
-
who had nothing to do with the next minister in here, who was by the way a person of Jewish descent, not a Jew or a Lithuanian.
-
Žemaitis had a big farm house
-
and he was the vice-village leader.
-
Mr. Jankowski, Henryk as I well remember – the district secretary, was also helping.
-
But there were some people who were against Jankowski in spite of the fact he had never done any dirty things.
-
At Jankowski´s place lived an organist,
-
he was the musician and later professor at our Music Academy - Witold Rudziński.
-
The Rudziński family lived at Jankowski´s.
-
We had stayed in touch with the Rudziński family,
-
I mean me and the Świezewski family used to go there,
-
all of them knew about Maryśka coming,
-
maybe some documents were needed to give to Maryśka so the church was also a good place.
-
Those two men, these village leaders, did not let Gestapo get to Orwidów two or three times.
