[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Translation of back of Kleeman photo part 2

[Ken Powell]

The rest of the translation from back of photo:

http://www.thefourjays.com/german/lehman/photos/kleemanback.jpg

On the left side:
> "Abs. Wilhelmine Klehmann
> Ko"nigsberger Str. 1
> Flu"chtlingsheim ....  ...."

Abs. above probably means "Absender",, that is "from Wilhelmine Klehmann, 
with address Koenigsberger Street 1, Fluechtlilngsheim ...  ...  where 
Fluechtlingsheim means a home for the displaced, refugee.  The last two 
words after Fluechtlingsheim would indicate the name of this refugee center 
or place - I can't read the old German to provide a proper transcription - 
perhaps someone else can by looking at the link above.

Rgds,
Ken Powell
