H 11313 Dear Mr State Secretary ! On your valuable letters of 1O January l940, No.St. S-189/24/40, allow me to inform you that the questioning of the persons present or involved in the incident at the inn "Na Nové Hospodě" /Neuwirtshaus/ found out the following: On 8 October 1939, the Neuwirthaus /Na Nove Hos Podě/ No.25 of Karl Herman /Gemeinde Stirschin, Bezirk Eule/ held a church consecration dance entertainment. At the end of the dance entertainment, the guests began to move through the tavern around 24 o'clock. Around this time, the tavern entered a uniformed functionary of the NsDAP accompanied by Franz Batrla from Czechtitz No. 28, who had joined his head. Both took a seat in the tavern. One of the guests, the chauffeur Gottlieb Doležal from Sulitz, was quite drunk and, when he noticed the uniformed functionary of the NSDAP, he spoke to him with the words: "We both know each other well. They are Mr. Meduna, the former official in the Bräu- haus in Gross-Popowitz"; he handed him the hand, sat down to him.
