Furono uccisi a fucilate 2 vecchi, uno dei quali morì dissanguato, senza che a nessuno fosse permesso di medicarlo. Frustate e battute a sangue, moltissime persone di ogni età e sesso, ma con particolare gravità il cappellano Don Paolo Min mentre dava l’assoluzione ad uno dei morenti, 60 case furono saccheggiate asportandone viveri, denari, oggetti di valore, calzature, lenzuola”.

Caption translates as: “Carnia, 19 March 1945. Following the killing of a Caucasian police officer by partisans, a violent reprisal was unleashed against the inhabitant of Fielis. Two old men were shot and killed. One of them bled to death because everyone was forbidden to help him. Many people, regardless of age and gender, were severely lashed out and hit. Amongst them, Father Paolo Min was assaulted while he was administering the last rites to a dying person. Sixty houses were looted: provisions, money, valuable objects, shoes, and sheets were stolen.”]]>
