These details were given by a man, who succeeded in escaping on the -V91'Y day he was to be taken' to Ger- many. He is an intelligent man of high socialhonor and as he witness- ed the whole series of the events he- was able to record his impressions almost hour by hour. His story, as told in' his own words, follows:- “The deportation of men of the Nivellles district was fixed by the German authorities for November 9. On that day at 8 o'clock the whole' male population above 17 years of age had to gather in the Palace St. Paul. The population of the country districts was also invoked, and one saw them coming in' from Lillois, 'l`ine', Montreaux, Ittree, Vlrginal and other places. It was s sad spectacle. Parties of men were being lied to the who had accompanied them so as to protect to the best of their ability. “There came crawling forward on crutches. old men of the Hospice, a homo of rest for destitute old pso- Dle. Frightened at the display of military force assembled on the spot Home of those -poor wretches were unable to walk and were brought to the consternation place leaning on thc arms of hospice attendants.

Men of 55 and loss age were retained. Msn had come to the' Place Saint Paul ac- companied by their wives. who screamed in despair all the way along. “The men of 55 to 18 were taken surrounded by soldiers and marched off, -together with 100 officials of the light railways, including the admin- istrative staff, who had also been called up in ranks of throes. They went, still followed by weeping wo- men and children, along the streets to the larger paper mills of Del Croix. Along tho roads soldiers were lined up.
