Dear Professor,
Finally my home is in order, and I wanted to sit down to finish the lecture on the interpretation of dreams when I learned that the Society of Physicians is having its last meeting of the semester next week and that the lecture has to be postponed until the fall series1 I breathed easily, because such a lecture about dreams for the completely uninitiated proved to be quite a difficult task
The practical work of analysis is now going very smoothly; I am now doing three to five analyses daily, among them a homosexuality, an impotence, an obsessional neurosis, the already mentioned querulist, an erythrophobia—nothing but men I evidently have more luck with men than with women, although the transference of women has already given me a lot to do.
Brill wrote me a very cordial letter, in which he pleads for us to stay longer in America. I hardly think we can get into that.—
Jung also notified me that he has returned from his Italian trip2 and wants to dedicate himself totally to scientific work. He wants to conclude the association work and immerse himself in the analysis of psychoses.
I have still not given up hope that Mr. and Mrs. Hollitscher will make the postponed trip to Budapest a reality, after the patient's complete recovery.
