ContentNotes from the story of Marie Pražanová remembering BM and his family in Polička. MP knew BM from her youth when he used to go to her father's doctor in Sebranice to have his teeth pulled. Later, BM came to the Pražans to play the piano. During the war, BM tried to support the Martin family and even arranged the funeral of František Martinů.
