Heniek Zemsz's wife fell in love with him. 10 August 1943 friends sent him with smugglers to the 'Aryan side' thinking that if he was leaving his lover and sister in the ghetto, he would come back if he survived. Lewinson was to find a flat, he got 20 dollars in gold for this purpose. After crossing Lewinson lived with Poles that he knew in Poznanska Street, but two days later there was a leak and he had to leave that place. He slept on the bank of the Vistula River, he did not manage to find any flat. 8 days on the 'Aryan side' was a terrible disappointment for him. He came back to the ghetto, as it had been agreed, 18 August. He hides with the rest of survivors from Najberg's group in Pawia Street. 24 September he went away with Starowiejski - they did not come back.
