English Translation

2 Prague, 10 December 1941 At around 1 p.m. on 17 November 1941, the director of the women's home in Prague-Sm i c h o w, asked the telephonic office whether it was true that the third floor of House No. 3 had to be cleared today. To my question, from whom she had received the order, she replied that the order had been issued by the Ministry of Social and Health Administration. At 7 p.m., the Direktor also told me that all the preparations for the evacuation had been made. The questioners were temporarily accommodated in hotels or in other rooms of the home, as far as necessary, in mass quarters. As far as this had not yet happened, the rooms would still be cleaned today, the beds were freshly covered. On November 18, 1941, various members of the local office, who live in the home, informed me that there had been quite a mess. There had been Czech police around the evening, I was not aware of whether incidents had occurred that required the police to intervene. Nachr. Unmmmmy,
