When I started to dress, to my surprise I could not find my wet travelling clothes. Instead of my clothes I found a new outfit: everything from a cotton dress to a pair of shoes. This humble family had presented me with Sunday clothes belonging to their youngest daughter, six months my junior.
I located the men in the garden eating half-dried plums still on the trees. They were relaxed, free and happy after getting me safely across the border.
I, too, was relaxed and free.
At long last I had found a peaceful refuge with this unknown but friendly family which had taken me into its midst and made me a welcome member.
It was October 24th, 1918 ... for me a new day ... and the beginning of a new life.
