My precious beloved child!

I don’t have to write that we were very happy with your letter. About us it is again best to be silent. Please see to it that the other children שי' also write.

I hope to be able to write the next letter to you from א"י , but that is not as yet definite.

As soon as you receive this letter please write to the same address by return of post.

We greet you and kiss you, as well as the dear relatives, also the other children שי'.

Your Mama

Once again I embrace you my beloved daughter.

 

Dear Feige,  

I am forwarding to you the letter from your dear mother and greet you and your siblings heartily.
