Considerable tension exists in Drohobycz, East Galicia, where the clergy have incited the population in connection with the death of Nina Ruderfeld, the twenty-four year old grand-daughter of the Schodnitzer Rabbi, Israel Sauerstoff.
Miss Ruderfeld took her own life following a disappointing love affair with a Christian, it is alleged. While she lay unconscious in the hospital, she was converted to Christianity, despite the protest of her family and burial was announced for today in a Christian cemetery. Christian services are to be held with the participation of monks and nuns.
The rumor has been spread that the Jews plan to steal the corpse.
