It is a fact I can bear witness to. I was in the camp Cariera de Piatra
(Stone Quarry) on the west bank of the river Bug which was under Romanian
control. It was hard. People were dying daily from Typhus and hunger, and
the inmates of the old-disabled home (Siechenhaus) which were brought in the
last transport from Czernowitz were shot by the Romanian Gendarmes. Then
they decided to transfer us to the other (east) side which was under German
control. One day the Germans came and led majority of the inmates to their
side (we were among the few who succeeded to evade this). To the best of my
knowledge none of those who were taken to to the German side survived. Among
them Selma Meerbaum-Weisinger. I think our Gerhard Schreiber wrote about
this in his memoirs.
