FULL TEXT (translated from German): From Warsaw in
Russian Poland the W. B. [Warsasw newspaper] is reported: Today in the city of
Lodz the police arrested an “Angelmaker” and clapped her behind bars. The sound
of incessant whining at the home of rag collector Josefine Wilczynska drew
attention to her criminal activity. As soon as police initiated their
investigation of the source of the sounds they discovered four babies, one of
them too weak even to whimper. In a cradle in the corner of the chamber,
wrapped in rags, the half-dead corpse of a fifth child was discovered. The next
day one of the four living infants disappeared without a trace. The police
investigation found that another child had been found buried and, according to
the results of the autopsy, had been alive at the time of interment. The three
surviving infants were, as determined by examining doctors, to be in a state of
starvation. An investigation into Wilczynska’s other shameful activities was
initiated.
