Questions
regarding
the
Maquis
produced
only
a
babbled
"Je
ne
sais
pas."
Two
days
later,
he
again
faced
his
tormentors.
HOT
WATER
TORTIRE
This
time
he
was
strapped
into
a
chair
with
a
pad
of
paper,
with
instructions
to
write
the
answers
to
questions
fired
at
him.
Before
him
were
three
electric
elements
on
which
were
kettles
of
water.
The
first
was
set
at
a
low
heat,
the
second
at
medium,
and
the
third
was
set
at
high.
A
clamp
was
used
to
force
oper
his
mouth,
and
the
water
from
the
low
burner
was
poured
down
his
throat.
The
questions
brought
only
the
French
negative.
Finally,
boiling
water
was
oured
into
the
half-wit's
mouth
at
the
hands
of
the
German
Oestapo.
Born
at
Ponna,
India,
in
1903,
the
son
of
a
British
Army
officer,
DePre
graduated
from
Cambridge
with
an
arts
degree.
Later
he
came
to
Canada
to
serve
with
the
Hudson's
Bay
Company,
freighting
mail,
merchandise
and
passengers
in
the
western
Arctic
by

seven
years
after
DePre
had
moved
to

Shortly
after
enlistment
in
the
RCAF
he
was
chosen
to
study
at
a
British
spy-training
school
in
Oxfordshire,
England.

he
was
