Australians Tell Of Escape From France

An hour to leave. Australians Mr and Mrs W J Pullum and Mr R Pullum ordered to depart within an hour for safety after German forces entered the Chateau Poms near Bordeaux. They boarded a ship at the mouth of the Geronde, left cars abandoned, and traveled toward Falmouth, seeking refuge as fires and disruption spread through French villages. The couple, long in England and Europe, hoped for military work amid the upheaval while their horses and cattle were left behind, hoping to reunite later with family in Australia.
