Vienna IX, Berggasse 19
8 October 1913
Dear Friend,
Thanks for your lines on my arrival in Vienna, which, because of immediate inundation, I am answering only today and for a current reason.
I received the enclosed letter from the Gesellschaft für Sexualwissen-schaft, and I am asking you whether I should join it. Löwenfeld has spoken to me about Moll's foundation, and, discreetly, informed me of his disinclination to have any part in it. I dealt with the letter that came from Moll's faction by not reacting.
From Rome I brought with me the deepest well-being and the draft of the narcissism. Here I acquired a head-cold, like all Viennese, and have not yet been able to take the n[arcissism] out again. All well and satisfactory at home, my son Ernst is getting ready to move to Munich.1
The group in London is said to have been founded,2 we have had no more news from Switzerland. Today we had our own first meeting, at which I gave a very honest account of Munich.3
It is a quarter to one in the morning. Reason to wish you and your dear wife the finest days ahead.
Your faithfully devoted
Freud
