  ... possible way of getting Shmu’el out of Poland. I knew Shmu’el ever since we were children for he went to school with my brother, long may he live, from the first grade of public school till they graduated from high-school — 12 consecutive years. In all that time Shmu’el was a frequent visitor at Moshe Bank (Feingold) On his mother’s side Shmu’el, blessed be his me-mory, was the grandson of Reb Ephra’im Stiglitz. Reb Ephra’im was one of the richest most highly res-pected men in the shtetl. When he later moved to Rzezow with a congregation many times the size of that in Brzozow, he remained one of the most pro-minent and eminent citizens there. His father, Reb Ya’acov Fiderer, came ...

  191 Moshe Bank (Feingold) / MOSHE PARNESS ז״ל In Warsaw he ,'peeked and was hurt", as she saying goes, became captivated by the Zionist idea, frequented Zionist clubs, read the modern literature and finally joined the Zionist movement. When the time came for him to enlist in the Polish army he did not resort to ,,self-torture" (,,plaggen sich’’ in Yiddish) as did other Yeshiva youths, but was recruited for two years of active service. When he was released he returned to the shtetl, ,,shortened his capote" but continued observing the tenets and the traditions. His acute awareness of the futility of remaining in Poland made him join ...

  ... Bracha Wolfman-Hann / It has been forty eight years since I left the shtetl of Brzozow where I was born and spent my youth. I still remember the "potchines" — long rows of houses roofed in front where we would walk back and forth when it was raining. There was the "deli-catessen" belonging to Masha Feingold, a small, in-telligent woman, always smiling, who welcomed her customers with characteristic quietness, serving every-body pleasantly and patiently. It was a special treat to go in there. She had become widowed while still young, a mother of small children, and everybody respected her for the way she brought them up. The

  ... , may God avenge her, a clever and resolute woman, managed the business and brought up the children. Under the Soviets, her apartment became a small hotel and a highly kosher restaurant for obser-vant refugees of means from Western Galicia. Among her boarders were her brother-in-law Kalman Tzvik and the boy Eliezer Goldfisher, son of her sister-in-law Feige, may God avenge them. Much of my time was spent in the house of Etka (Feingold) and her husband Ha'im Elstcr, may God avenge them, who always made me feel warmly wel-come. Among those living in Lwow from our village and whose homes I visited, let me mention Anda and I«olla Killer, may God avenge them; Mendel Leufer, his wife Shprintze and their children: Yoseck and Feige. They later returned to Brzozow and were killed there. There ...

  ... hide their fear of the oncoming war. The post-card gives a short description of the situation and the atmos-phere in the shtetl in those tense times. "Be it as it may, you know more than we do how things are in Poland now. Last Sunday there were "great doings" throughout the night, with call-up papers for immediate enlistment being handed out all around. Those enlisted were : Ha’im Shlomo Fein-gold (Ha’im Bank), Rafa’el Lanner, the son of Shmu’el Rafa’el’s, Trintsher, the grandson of Israel "beber", Bunik Seiller and very many Poles. Many Jews were recruited in the Sanok region. It appears that in the predominantly Polish areas fewer Jews are enlisted than in the towns of mixed Jewish and Ukrainian populations.
