Alice and Paul Paulus' first born was barely five months old when a doctor asked them to hide a Jewish man in their home in Ermelo, Holland. They kept him for a month even though his unwillingness to stay indoors put the family in grave danger. The Dutch Resistance found this man another underground address, sending a young Jewish couple in his place to the Paulus household. The Paulus's successfully hid this couple in a small attic room for two and a half years.
