Lotte Pariser, another correspondent, who writes from Terezin in May and June 1944, born on 7 September 1885, transported to Terezin on 6 June 1942, evacuated to Auschwitz to 28 October 1944. Anna Ansbacher, a friend of Sophie Scharvogel, was one of the lucky few to have been sent to Switzerland in exchange for lorries (?).

E. Ohly, the depositor, came to Great Britain in 1945 to join his father, who had returned to Great Britain in 1934. Since he was half Jewish he could no longer work in his profession as a sculptor in Germany. As he was born here it was not a problem. E. Ohly left Germany in 1934 for school in Switzerland and lived there until 1945. His mother, Gertrud, being half Jewish, survived the war and died in Munich on 20 March 1951."@eng . "E.
