1929]
Dear, revered Master,
1
When could I see you in the next few days, without
disturbing you? I could make Thursday from 3:30 4 o'clock onwards, whenever it is convenient
for you. Or Wednesday towards 6:15 – or would you
prefer the following Sunday morning? Many cordial
greetings to the two of you, from all of us!
