- Print of an etching in black ink on white paper. Illustration of the Herforder Hemdenfabrik (Herford shirt factory) building with chimneys blowing smokes and horses pulling carriages inscribed with the name of the factory. Narrative: Brothers Josef and Hermann Elsbach founded the company in 1873 and in 1875 registered it as Herforder shirt factory J.Elsbach & Co. The founders came from a Jewish family in the clothing business since 1848. In 1907 Elsbach became a corporation. In 1914 the company was regarded as Europe's largest clothing company. More than 1,200 factory workers and thousands of home workers were employed. As part of the forced aryanizations of 1938, the family had to sell their shares. The company was taken over and renamed by Ahlers AG Herford linen factories. At the end of the Second World War, the factory buildings were heavily damaged by fire and looting. The military government in the British zone of occupation confiscated the shares of Ahlers in the company. In 1947, Ahlers came back to run the company but he died in1954. From 1952 the company was called back Elsbach linen factories AG. The shares were returned to the surviving heirs of the Elsbach family.

- Black and white photo of the memorial for the Warsaw Ghetto in 1948. Jagged outline. Narrative: Sonia Smolnik-Aronowicz-Tencer was born in 1915, in Vilnius, formerly part of Poland. Her family has lived in Vilnius for many generations. She was married to a lawyer named Misha Aronowicz and studied to become an accountant. The city was under the Soviet occupation when the Nazis invaded on June 22, 1941. In September 1941, Sonia and her family were deported to the Vilnius ghetto, created by the Nazis to dehumanize and exploit the Jews. They remained there until 1943, when the men and women were separated. It was the last time she saw her brother, Ariye, and her husband, Misha. In the ghetto of Vilnius, Sonia befriended Miriam and Minya (Miriam's sister-in-law). Together, they made a pact to help each other survive the war. Their friendship and alliance represent a form of resistance against the abuse they suffered in the ghetto and labor camps. The same year, Sonia's parents went into hiding. Sonia and her two friends were then deported to the concentration camps of Riga-Kaiserwald and Riga-Strasdenhof in Latvia where they were used as forced labor. In 1945, they were deported to Bromberg-Ost, a women's annex of the Stutthof concentration camp where they were forced to build German railroads and barracks. The camp was liquidated on January 20, 1945, 300 survivors set off on a death march to Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg. Sonia managed to escape. She spent the next few weeks hiding in abandoned German houses before her liberation by the Soviet Army. On the day of her liberation near Pomerania, a Soviet soldier gave Sonia a necklace as a symbol of hope and comfort. He told her she would be able to wear jewelry again one day. After the war, Sonia reunited with her two friends. Miriam then immigrated to Boston where she became an administrative assistant in the Chemistry Department at Harvard. Minya remained in France, where she married and had two sons. Sonia arrived in Canada aboard the ship Samaria in 1950.

- OBITUARIES: Telegraph Journal, January 29, 2013 Wolfe, Max Morrison – It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of Max Morrison (Mordecai ben Eliyahu) Wolfe, husband of the late of Willi Evans Wolfe, of St. Andrews New Brunswick. Max passed away peacefully on Friday January 25, 2013 at the Charlotte County Hospital, in St. Stephen New Brunswick. Born June 27, 1934 in Glasgow Scotland, Max was the middle of three children born to pre-war Europe. Wanting to be Prime Minister of Britain, Max went into law but eventually followed his passion, the mountains, to Calgary Alberta, where he married and became father to three children. It was here that he met Willi Evans whom he married and a few years later relocated to New Brunswick to "live off the land". Realizing he did not know much about farming he resumed his legal practice, kept a cow or two and started writing for the local newspaper. He eventually moved to St. Andrews so he could golf, walk his dogs and enjoy life. Max is survived by his children, Rebecca, Marius and Jason, and his grandchildren: Coen and Keira. He was predeceased by his parents, Ellis and Dinah (Morrison) Wolfe and brothers, Lawrence and Walter. The Funeral Service will be held at Brenan’s Funeral Home, 111 Paradise Row, Saint John (634-7424) on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 at 2:00 pm. Interment will take place in Shaari Zedek Cemetery. For those who wish remembrances to the Fundy Community Foundation would be appreciated by the family.
