Sonnabend

Verehrter Herr Doctor!

Herzlichsten Dank! – heute Abend bin ich leider eingeladen, – ob ich morgen mich frei machen kann, weiß ich nicht, – ich werde morgen im Laufe des Tages Ihnen in die Wohnung Bescheid sagen lassen. Ich möchte gern mit Ihnen gemütlich zusammen kommen!


Mit besten Grüßen
Ihr getr[euer]

Sunday evening

Revered Dr. [Schenker],

Very many thanks! – unfortunately I’m invited out for this evening. Whether I can free myself up for tomorrow I don’t know. Tomorrow, in the course of the day, I will let you know the outcome at the house. I would very much like to get together with you in leisurely fashion.


With best greetings,
Your devoted
