The toll is reproduced exactly as the source states it — never rounded, never added to another. Tolls overlap from one event to the next.
The last convoys from eastern Bohemia leave Hradec Králové for Theresienstadt; by year's end, the provincial communities of the Protectorate have ceased to exist.
The community of Hradec Králové is deported to Theresienstadt at the end of the year, along with the Jews from the neighboring localities of eastern Bohemia who had been gathered in the city. The assembly takes place in a school, where those summoned spend several days before departure. Luggage is limited to what each person can carry, and the rest is seized on the spot. The survivors of the convoy will almost all be sent onward to the east.
