My dear Jones,
Your wife shows, as I expected her to be, a precious creature of the highest value. She feels very well indeed, nay much better than is compatible with our treatment. The first half of her daily dose of Morphia—or nearly so—has been cut down with very small suffering. To be sure the second half will cost dearer. She is gentle [kind] enough to let me read your letters and I am enjoying the exactness of your descriptions, the vivacity of your impressions, and the high tone of your intercourse with your wife.
There are some news here for your interest. Stekel has separated, I have resigned the editorship of the Zentralblatt and am preparing a new journal, worked by Ferenczi or by Abraham [the Zeitschrift]. I hope you will retire your name from the head of Stekel's periodical and reserve your productions for our next creation. I am so very glad for the loss; we left each other in a friendly way, but Hell knows what his dark designs are.
I am in excellent spirits and envy you for all your sight-se[e]ing but especially for what expects you at Rome.
Yours truly
Freud
