About three weeks after arriving at Auschwitz, Mr. van Pels injured his thumb on work detail, and asked to be sent to sick bay. The next day, there was a "sweep" of sick bay, and all those who were there were sent to the gas chambers. He was the only one of those hiding in the annex who was actually gassed.
