      Liberated from the bloody yoke, on July 1941 the earth returned its secret. It opened very much on facts which the Bolsheviks were very carefully trying to hide behind barred windows, barbed wires, in cellars and in their minds.

      Thrown criss-cross in a common pit in the garden of Baltezers summer house were lying shoot. The pit returned more and more new corps.
