dearest kitty,
my own affairs have been pushed to the background by . . . a break-in. i''m boring you with all my break-ins, but what can i do when burrs take such pleasure in honoring gies & go. with their presence? this incident is much moreplicated than thest one, in july 1943.
"there''s been a burry" shed through his mind. but just to make sure, he went downstairs to the front door, checked the lock and found everything closed. "bep and
peter must just have been very careless this evening," mr. van. d. concluded. he remained for a while in mr. kugler''s office, switched off themp and went upstairs without worrying much about the open doors or the messy office.
early this morning peter knocked at our door to tell us that the front door was wide open and that the projector and mr. kugler''s new briefcase had disappeared from the closet. peter was instructed to lock the door. mr. van daan told us his discoveries of the night before, and we were extremely worried.
the only exnation is that the burr must have had a duplicate key, since there were no signs of a forced entry. he must have sneaked in early in the evening, shut the door behind him, hidden himself when he heard mr. van daan, fled with the loot after mr. van daan went upstairs and, in his hurry, not bothered to shut the door.
who could have our key? why didn''t the burr go to the warehouse? was it one of our own warehouse employees, and will he turn us in, now that he''s heard mr. van daan and maybe even seen him?
it''s really scary, since we don''t know whether the burr will take it into his head to try and get in again. or was he so startled when he heard someone else in the building that he''ll stay away?
yours, anne
p.s. we''d be delighted if you could hunt up a good detective for us. obviously, there''s one condotion: he must be relied upon not to mform on people in hiding.
