He was taken to a Glasgow Hospital where his identity was established beyond all doubt. ll.ctl 1 Hess was Hitler’s most trusted and valued friend and it is thought that having disagreed with Hitler he anticipated sharing the same fate as Itoehm, who was shot like a dog during the great “purge” because Hitler feared him. On lauding he was taken by a shepherd to his cottage and invited to have a cup of tea, when he replied: “Thank you, I don’t take tea at night. ” He was then taken to the hospital.
