Text:
“On October 21, 1634 three enemy companies of Croatian soldiers attacked the town of Geithain, plundered it and kidnapped Johannes Wermann, the son of the citizen and baker Hans Wermann, who died blissfully on December 31st in Greslitz, Bohemia. He is buried there, his father himself stood by his grave. As an eternal memory of this school, he deposited 50 guilders with the city council in order to provide the schoolboys with books and writing paper for the end-of-year examination every year from the interest.
John was 13 years old and God gave him grace.
“Then again I saw how many people are being exploited in this world. The oppressed cry and nobody stands up for them. Nobody helps them because their oppressors are too powerful and do not shy away from violence ”.
Ecclesiastical Solomon chapter 4 verse 1.
