In the years 1939-1945, nearly 300 members of the Second Polish Parliament, including 155 senators, died or were killed. One of them was Tadeusz Karszo-Siedlewski (1893 - 1939), coat of arms Ogończyk, senator of the 4th and 5th term (since 1935), a well-known industrialist before the war. He took part in the war of 1920, for which he received the Virtuti Militari Cross. He was also an economic activist, a. o., a member of the Council of the Central Association of Polish Industry, Mining, Trade and Finance “Lewiatan,” and from 1936, the President of the Association of Polish Ironworks. He was also a benefactor of the Evangelical-Reformed Church (Calvinist). In September 1939, he did not leave the capital; he became a delegate of the Chief Commander of the Citizens’ Guard. Seriously wounded after the German air raids in the city, he died on 26 September 1939 and is buried in the Calvinist cemetery in Warsaw.
