As the Japanese closed in on Tunghwa, Gilbert gave asylum to important figures of the resistance and the former government and stored trunks containing their personal belongings. He also took care of wounded soldiers from the defeated Chinese army. Not surprisingly, the Japanese put him on their blacklist and, after the fall of Tunghwa, prepared to raid his place for evidence.
