In my memory, they were just not there. I was
young, they disappeared.
Do you remember when that was, what you' re talking
about?
[Sighs] It was--well, everything happened so
quickly to me, and about the time that my father
went and some men came--my sister and I would sit
on the stairs and we would look through French
doors in the drawing room. Well, at this time we
were sitting on the stairs and these men came,
and my father went out, met them, and my mother
got him his coat, put a scarf around his neck,
kissed him, and that was the last [pauses] we saw
of him.
The last--?
And so he left, and I can' t tell you the sequence,
whether they left before he did or whether they
left right after he did, the servants. Then they
were gone.We're going to back up just a moment here. The
neighborhood you lived in, do you have any
recollections of that? In either Berlin or in
Heidelberg?14
