There is a footnote to this story... wounded, Major
George Hiller managed to escape and made his way eventually
to the hilltop village of Menargues,
near Carennac. Here he was taken in by a villager who
nursed him back to health whilst risking certain death
by harbouring him. After the war, Major Hiller came
back to this house in Menargues with his wife. He died
in the 70's, Mrs Hiller still visits in the summer.
There is a plaque on the wall of the house behind the
church (see below)
