⇧ Dear Dr. [Schenker]

The lady – an American – will write to you. But for
God’s sake don’t hold me responsible for her, and make
sure you are recompensed correspondingly. I am off to Budapest for a tea evening, and will be back on the 7th and
will then arrange a get-together.

Footnotes
1 The
postcard is undated. The reference to the “Dame” (“lady”) may perhaps relate to a
referral from Princess Windisch-Gräz in OJ 9/6, [52], November 27, 1911, hence the tentative proposed editorial
dating here. D’Albert’s denial of responsibility suggests that the referral comes from a
third party.
