Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash:

Many Jewish refugees fleeing Austria and Germany were classified as enemy aliens and were interned on the Isle of Man. P Camp, originally named Hutchinson Camp, was composed of 33 houses and was located in Douglas. It is often referred to as “the artists’ camp” because of its abundance of artistic and creative talent and many internees who were in possession of advanced degrees in medicine and science. Indeed, many could also speak English.

Adolphe Malinow came from Germany and lived with his wife in Whitehaven. However, due to the rampant fear of enemy sabotage, Mr. Malinow was interned in P Camp Hutchinson.

Letter, written in German to Mrs. Malinow, was censored in Liverpool.
