Bonjour, il s'agit d'un texte tiré du livre de souvenir Yizkor de la ville de Kutno.
Dans ce passage, mon arrière grand-père Dawid Lustman est évoqué. Quelqu'un peut il me traduire ce passage ? Merci beaucoup
Catherine Lustman

11/24/2021 4:08 PM First: this text is in Yiddish, not in Hebrew.
Second: the author describes Jewish life in Kutno & David Lustman is mentioned just in passing as a "breit-pleitsiger dardake-melamed" meaning "a big person who taught the youngest school-children", usually those who had to learn to read and write.
Hope this helps you :-)
