Peter has been taken!

May 13, 1942

It was a Wednesday morning and for the past few days we had all worried that Peter would be taken by the Gestapo. Everyday we would hear the police, Gestapo, and NSBers with there automobiles. They were the only ones to have automobiles these days. Two days after going to church we had decided that there we two possibilites. One being the fact that he was not reported to the Gestapo and the other being that they had more important things to focus their time on.
Just when we all started to calm ourselves down that morning Peter's little sister Cocky busts through the watch shop door! '' Tante Corrie! Tante Corrie! They took Peter away!" We all stared in disbelief.
"Where? When?" She was not sure though. Today we learned that he was taken to a federal prison in Amsterdam.
