It is part of the collection

A letter to his wife, in which Wacław Baruch writes, inter alia, about his illness and orders related to the changes of the ghetto borders: "I am anxious if you are not sick, Zochno, because I had a cold and very runny nose for a week, I got my feet wet, because both pairs of [shoes] are soaking through, on Monday I was even lying in bed, a motopyrin is ending and runny nose is not. […] For now, nothing new, our street remains in the dist. so they will not move us, maybe they will put someone in our apartment, because 4 people is to live in a room with a one-window and 8 in two window one, about 30,000 people had to move out within five days. Natka K. survived because her side of Żelazna remains. Last week I spoke with Mania Ignaczek. [S]he wanted to visit you Zochno, she complained terribly that they are starving, that they had sold all of the uncle’s stuff, only the two-carat ring remained, and Mania does not want to sell it because it has its own purpose, so Zochno she wants to leave it with you, so that you give her the equivalent, I mentioned that I doubt if you have money, and as for these bills of exchange, the attorney said that you need to conduct a court case and submit the bills to the court, so Mania is afraid that they will get lost, thus you can't imagine how they groan. Yesterday it was an anniversary of Heńków's wedding, 22 years, sad but together, and we are separated and it is not known for how long, maybe God will help and your torments My Zochno will end […] ”.
