Sophie Scholl’s last words to the chaplain
With regards to Sophie Scholl’s last wishes that in addition to Prof. Muth, I should give her greetings to the friends in Munich as well, I can only assume that these greetings were for the Graf siblings. I cannot name anyone else who could have been part of Scholl siblings’ circle of friends [Note 1]. Continue reading
Otl returns to Solln
Aicher wanted to meet up with Hans Scholl there, but since he [Hans Scholl] stayed out later that night, he [Aicher] could not wait any longer, because he wanted to catch the 8 pm train to Professor Muth in Solln.

Hans and Gisela visit Carl Muth
I was with Hans Scholl visiting Prof. Muth in Solln a third time, picking up gramophone records. This was about 14 days ago. On that occasion, nothing was discussed, because Prof. Muth did not have very much time to talk with us. Therefore I cannot give any details regarding the political attitudes of this man. … Continue reading
Gisela Schertling: Preparing for the Huber-Harnack meeting
The next day when I came out of Prof. Huber’s lecture, I saw Scholl and Schmorell in front of the university. They then met with Harnack. Harnack then immediately took his leave. Scholl and I went to the city to eat lunch, while Schmorell went to a restaurant alone where he allegedly wanted to meet up with a Russian woman. [Note 1] Continue reading

Carl Muth letter to Hans Scholl
Copy. [Note 1]
Munich-Solln, October 19, 1942
Dear Mr. Scholl, I cannot express my joy at your long-expected letter in any better way than to reply by return mail. I have repeatedly asked about you in Ulm. One time I was able to discern that you are hail and hearty. Continue reading

Sophie and Elisabeth to Munich
One time I was able to discern that you are hail and hearty. Sofie – and in the beginning Elisabeth as well – was here for ten days and helped me bring my best books from the upper stories of my half-destroyed house to the first floor. I had to make substantial adjustments in expectation of the next bombing raid, which we will not be spared. Continue reading
Air raid – Munich
The one [air raid] on September 19/20, 1942 was apocalyptic. In Solln, 40 houses are destroyed, 15 people are dead. In Munich, many times over that number of houses, and more than 400 dead! 200 meters [650’] from my house, houses toppled over like boxes. The Bergangellen’s [Note 1] house is uninhabitable and B. and his family have moved away from Solln. I myself was unwittingly in grave danger, as I was not in my basement. Whoever experienced this single hour will never be able to forget it, no matter how long they live. Continue reading
Funds from Carl Muth
During the time (that I was working on his library), Prof. Muth gave me around 300 Marks [$2,400.00] to purchase books for myself. This was not payment for services rendered; rather, it was a gift, since it went without saying that I had promised to do the work gratis, simply because it interested me. Since June 1942, I have not received any additional gifts from Prof. Muth.
