A Protestant pastor and a Catholic writer have collaborated with an American, Kathe Kuhn, by compiling the last words of those who, unwilling to condone or to obey injustice under the Nazi terror, were facing execution. Their letters and messages were addressed to their nearest and dearest, in a situation which calls forth the ultimate truth in each person.

Aber wenn im Tode der Mund sich schliesst, aus dem das Wort gegangen, bleibt frei und lebendig das Wort; über dasselbe hat der Tod keine Macht, ins Grab kann es nicht verschlossen werden, und wie man die Knechte Gottes schlagen mag in Banden und Ketten, frei bleibt das Wort Gottes, welches aus ihrem Munde gegangen. Jeremias Gotthelf
