Content and physical description
ContentHappy birthday again. Remembering the times we shared together. He's busy. He writes why he didn't get her letter in time. He's happy for him and especially that he's feeling better. He is working on a comedy, THE MARRIAGE], it is going well. He has received a well-paid commission for a CONCERT FOR PIANO, PIANO AND ORCHESTRA. The Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 3 is finished, he is making a copy to send to Washington to get the money. THE BRIDGE is now playing in France, in Paris. Maybe they'll put it on near Milan too, she could go there to see it. She asks if she got the dollars and stockings he sent and also what she thinks of him now that she is reading a book about him.
