Well, and it was then that I met my brother for the first and last time. He mentioned to me then that he wanted to escape from the camp. I didn't advise him against it. How could I have advised him against it when I knew that it was either death or life? In the camp everyone knew what awaited them. People lived in hope, but in the end they expected that sooner or later the worst could happen. I said, 'Well go, then! Go!' But I didn't expect him to go to our parents. I thought he'd go to the forest or somewhere.

He went to meet our parents, and they picked him up in the ghetto there. The Germans probably found out where he was. I don't know how. They brought him back to Pustkow. He was put in what they called the penal camp, well, and presumably they finished him off there. I don't know anything more precise about the circumstances of his death.

I didn't think about escape. Anyway I didn't have the opportunity, because I simply worked together, in a group. Well, I didn't think about escape because quite simply I wasn't too badly off in those conditions.
