Affadavits

This file contains original manuscript and/or typescript letters and affidavits dated from 1940s to 1970s. The subject of these files is acts of violence committed by the Sons of Freedom, particularly by women, attested to in these documents as being directly and indirectly ordered by J. J. Verigin. Although copies of some of these were presented to the Doukhobor Research Committee, as well as to the Court, no action was ever brought against Verigin, though hundreds of Sons of Freedom were jailed, on their own admission to committing these acts. These documents include detailed accounts of Verigin visiting homes and prisons to give instructions for burnings and explosions. These appear to be the Sons of Freedom’s own files of original affidavits and letters solicited from participants.
