אזהרה
בצל התלייה הועמד חייל עברי, ששרת בדם לבו את עמו, ואת ארצו ונפל בשבי האוייב.
קצינים של צבא הכבוש הבריטי, המתיימרים להיות דיינים, הוציאו גזר דין מות על דב גרונר, ברמסם את חוקי המלחמה, המקובלים בעולם התרבותי.
העלאת שבוי לגרדום הוא רצח בכוונה תחילה.
אנו מזהירים את שלטון הדמים הבריטי מפני ביצוע הפשע.

[Irgun emblem]
Warning
In the shadow of the gallows stood a Hebrew soldier who served his people and his country with all his heart’s blood and fell into the enemy’s captivity.
Officers of the British occupation army, claiming to be judges, issued a death sentence on Dov Gruner, trampling on the laws of war, which are accepted in the civilized world.
Lifting a prisoner to the gallows is premeditated murder.
We warn the bloody British rule against committing the crime.
