I was 10 years old but learned very quickly to mature with all the
sudden dramatic changes. Everything changed including language.
Russian a must. Does one remember where households were gathered to hear
the Russian Constitution. It did not take long to get a worried look.
The burzui become a target & musseren ( dobbing in to the authorities
) a new profession.
Later in the year the Hall above the Cantor Conditorei, corner
Dreifaltigheitsgasse &
Stefaniegasse become a District Court. The Judge became God as he condemned
people to many years in Siberia.
