"The villages of Dugalishok and Nacha  stood on land that had been granted to the Asner, Paikowski, and Lipkunski families by a Russian general named Stalewitch. Members of these families were known as excellent farmers and as brave, courageous people. In fact, it was their courage that had won them their special landowning privileges: Stalewitch had given them a charter to the land in thanks for their having helped save his life during the Polish uprising of 1831. The charter, which was to serve them very well by allowing them to continue to own land long after the time when most of the Jews in the Eishyshok area had had their land taken away, also granted them voting rights in the landowners' assembly under the name Paikowski-Stalewitch, and later exempted them from other anti-Jewish legislation such as the 1882 May Laws.
