... At 5 o’clock, it was learned that Barasz had been told all the Jews of Bialystok, together with the machines and the factories, would be transferred to Lublin, where they would carry on their work. An order was issued that all Jews who lived on Polna, Neu- welt, Czestochower, Bialostoczaner, Okrongle, Szlia- checzke, Linas Hatzedek, Czysta, Zytnia, Zamenhof, Kupiecka, Geldowa and nearby streets, must report to depots at Jurowcer, Fabryczna, Czepla, Nowogrudska, Chmielna and the Judenrat gardens at 9 o’clock in the morning for transfer to the railroad station. Those not complying with this deadline would be shot if found in the prohibited areas. It thus became clear to everyone that the entire ghetto was targeted for destruction. Already at seven in the morning, it was impossible to pass through the streets because so many thousands of Jews were painstakingly making their way toward the depots. ...

... At first the Nazis defined the ghetto area as several small streets, in the poor Jewish section, whose limited space would have imposed impossible hardships on the victims, with no chance of survival in such conditions.

The Jews were given just three days to abandon their homes and move into the ghetto. ...

... ‘“At four in the morning on Thursday, July 3, the Nazis dragged from their homes men from the ages of 16 to 60. They closed off the following streets: Przejarz, Grochowa, Krakowska, Dambrowski, Kupiecka, Zamenhof, Bialystoczanska, Ruzanski, Zydowska, Bronska, Geldowa and Lipowa. Many foresaw what was coming and were able to hide. Approximately a thousand of the arrested men were lined up for ‘selec- tion.” [Who would live and who would die.] Workmen and artisans able to show callouses on their hands were separated from the rest and freed. The others, members of the intelligentsia and merchants, were detained. They were tortured all night and into the morning. Finally two hundred were loaded onto a truck that headed out of town. From that moment on, every trace of those Jews disappeared. It later became known that these two hundred were shot by the Nazis at Pietrasze Field, approximately two kilometers outside the city in the direction of Waszlykowa. They included: Dr. Jakow Rajfer; Wajnszel, instructor at Druskeniki Gymnasium; Aron Murkis, instructor at Zeligman Gymnasium; the merchant ...
