Scheveningen: Where it all starts...

March 1, 1944

"Women prisoners follow me!" said the matron. As we walked down the corridor the guard behind us said, " Prisoners walk to the side!" Then said, "Prisoners do not step on the matting." After saying our names and occupations for the thousandth time we continued down a long corridor. Once we got farther down the corridor the lond line of women halted in front of one of the large metal doors. She then put her key into the door and slowly opened. She looked at her lst and called out the name of the woman to be staying in that cell. Further down the corridor more doors were opened and women disappeared behind their doors constantly.

Later on the matron finally called Corrie's name. She was to share a cell with three other women. That was the last time I saw her for awhile.
