6Johannes Kleiman, letter to Otto Frank, translated by the Cold Case Team, March 31, 1958, AFS.
7The source of this confrontation between Otto and Gringhuis is Carol Ann Lee, The Hidden Life of Otto Frank (New York: Harper Perennial, 2003), 219. Lee mentioned the conversation, as did David Barnouw and Gerrold van der Stroom in their investigation, “Who Betrayed Anne Frank?” Though they were confident in the assertion and suggested that the conversation would be in the Silberbauer Doc. 1 file, a thorough search could not locate the source of the information. However, all three attest to its authenticity. We assume that the file was lost, removed, or misfiled.
