Dear Professor,
Your last letter contained much that greatly pleased and interested me. One generally hears of nothing but trenches, numbers of prisoners, etc., and then, for a change, there comes a sign that our science is still alive. I am extremely curious to know what new ideas have matured in the short time since we met and hope fervently that I can come to Vienna between Christmas and the New Year; this is, however, rather doubtful. I do not even know whether I shall remain in my present hospital post.
In the meantime, we may possibly have the pleasure of seeing your wife on her return journey from Hamburg here with us. We should be very pleased if she could spare a few hours for us.
