Further comments

Police Report, Clare, S Australia, 3 Aug 1915, p.4: arrived from ‘Poland in Germany’ 38 yrs before. ‘Like the rest of the Poles in this district, although subjects of Germany and speak German as well as the Polish language, they are not in sympathy with either Germany or Australia, whom they regard as having robbed them of their country, Poland, and by persecution forced them into exile.’
