German searching parties.
The method of the s%earchers was
for noncommissioned officers to en-

house and gained every floor.
The soldiers with hammers would
sound walls. ceiling and floors in an
endeavor to find the suspected cache.
They would trace exposed water
pipes, gas pipes and electric wires.
The family with the boarded up al
cove was fortunate to escape all the

German officers and soldiers billeted
in their homes, were able to clean out
hiding places behind wainscotine
