The Night of Broken Glass
Trying to cope
Edith's mother arranges to live in Amsterdam of March 1939 to live farther away from the Germans and closer to family. It doesnt say however where she ends up or her story. Her son's and Edith's brothers find new ways to cope from the catastrophe as well. Julius sets up a visa to the United States with the help of a friend. His brother Walter finds a camp in Amsterdam for Jewish refugees and lives there until he finds a visa as well.
Things start to add up
Later in July 1942 Anne gets her report card. She's failing algebra, but is fairly content everything else is fine. What is yet to come in the mail shows much worse information. At 3:00 the mail man comes brings a call up sheet for Anne's sister Margot to join a Nazi camp back in Germany. If the family regrets the sheet they all get arrested. This forces the family to go into hiding earlier.
The family goes into hiding the next day after the letter on a raining morning early July 4th (instead of July 16th). This hiding place was an annex behind Otto's office building he had since changed the name to 'Gies & Co.' since Jewish names weren't permitted.

The Hiding spot
Working with his four wonderful co workers the family got supply and emotional support from the team. They stayed quite through out the day with the curtains drawn, while the office was still in use and quieter through the night. Later another family joined them in this small space just big enough for 2 families. The family that moved in were the Van Peles's, Hermann the father, Auguste the wife, and their son Peter.

Quotes from Otto
“Because so many of my German countryman were turning into hordes of nationalistic, cruel, anti semiticcriminals, I had to face the consequences, and though this did hurt me deeply, I realized that Germany was not the world and I left my country forever.”

eye witness
Rosa de Winter-Levy witnesses this: “Then it was the turn of both girls...and there they stood for that moment, naked and bald. Anne looked straight at us with her innocent eyes, and then they were gone. We weren’t able to see what happened to them next. We heard Mrs. Frank cry out: 'The children! Oh God..."'
