lived witn fear for them selves and their loved ones. The couple he 83 and his alert- eyed wife is 74 came to Rochester from Westphalia, Germany, in 1939 to make their home with a eon, Max, who had emigrated to escape Nazi hatred two years before. Gross had been a prosperous landholder and cattle dealer in the little town where he and his wife had grown up and married, but the edicts of Hitler had stripped them of everything. The fear that haunted them until they were safe at sea then was replaced by another for the fate of a daughter, a son-in-law and three grandchildren who were left behind. There was only silence from Ger many after war came.

Mr. and Mrs. Gross, their son and three other, married daughters who also had escaped to America before the coming of the purge of the Jews waited until 1944 before they heard the worst. The daughter left In Germany was dead exterminated with her husband and one of her daughters in the dreaded Auschwitz concentration camp.
