The sender has just been instructed to request Herr Eduard Silber-stein to make the following suggestion to his mother: Herr and Frau Freud1 would be prepared* to lodge him and his brother Karl** and to provide them with a room in the new apartment2 to which they will be moving in two months' time, and also to sign their sick notes for school*** and to establish whether our luncheons, etc., are to their liking. The sender accordingly requests that the recipient bring this application to the notice of his mother.
Sender
Jacob Freud (1815-1896) and Amalie, née Nathanson (1835-1930).
Freud is presumably referring to his family's move from 30 Glockengasse to 5 Pfeffergasse, which took place in 1869 or 1870.
