Postcard with Russian stamp and postmark
Stamped "Passed by Censor V68"
Written by: Wolf Kayman, Szczuczyn [Name and return address is written in
Russian]
Sent to: Mr L Kayman, 80 Glenferrie Rd, Malvern, Melbourne
Dear Children,
We are alive and well. We are now classified as White Russians. It is reasonably
quiet here.
Nison [Eliezer's younger brother] was a Prisoner of War in Germany for 14 weeks.
He returned last month. His luck was that he got ill. His legs were swollen as a
result of hunger and that caused the Germans to let him go. About 370 young
people are still being held by the Germans among them [Rabbi] Lipe Chaim.
How are you all? I received your cable. Be well and write often. Don't send
any money. A parcel would be appreciated.
Your father,
Ze'ev Kayman
