[Göttingen] 24.v.26
Dear Professor,
Considering the enormous number of letters with which you have been overwhelmed, I had not intended you to send me a reply. Nor did my husband, who thanks you very much for yours. And two days later—this morning—there arrives from Eitingon, with a kind message in your own hand,* a most generous present of money. I am quite dumbfounded. It is as though we had exchanged birthdays, as if it were my birthday. How can I thank you adequately for this surprise? It is good that it is not necessary to look for words, because I know that you know how I feel, dear Professor. That is in itself a precious feeling.
Please tell Anna that I shall be writing quite soon. The Whitsun holidays were spoilt by all manner of things. In addition it is miserably cold here and my husband complains bitterly of the damp and chill which he feels in all his bones.
With all heartfelt greetings,
Yours,
Lou
