Je nemožné udržovat písemný styk s Paříží.
Bohuslav Martinů dostal od Paula a Maji Sacherových dopisy z 1. a 20. srpna a je rád za informaci o říjnovém provedení DVOJKONCERTU.
Nemá šanci najít ztracené rukopisy. Ztratily se i ty, které posílal po jednom příteli do Ameriky.
Bohužel nemůže nic dělat v záležitosti CONCERTA GROSSA. Už psal několikrát do Nevers, ale bezvýsledně. Bylo by možné se zeptat v Basileji? Jde o balík s notami, který podala 6. 7. Colette Frantz do továrny Siamec v Nevers. BM by snad mohl napsat do Universal Edition, ale nechce příliš přitahovat pozornost. Skladba nicméně nebude ztracena, i kdyby se rukopis nenašel: v Paříži je uložen materiál (spolu s materiálem DVOJKONCERTU) a jedna kopie je v Americe, i když ji BM sám nezkontroloval a neopravil.
Na ostatní rukopisy BM nechce ani myslet.
BM začal pracovat, píše FANTAZII PRO KLAVÍR [první část FANTAZIE A TOCCATY] A rád by se pustil do Sinfonie [SINFONIETTA GIOCOSA] pro sólový klavír a malý orchestr.
Jedno ze zavazadel BM a Charlotty Martinů zachránila paní de Lacone.
Mají zprávy od Marcela Mihaloviciho, Tibora Harsányiho a Henriho Martelliho. Doufají s ChM, že budou moci strávit zimu v Cannes.
Dva poslední dopisy od PS pro BM neprošly cenzurou. BM napsal do bankovního domu Morgan v Paříži, ale dopis mu přišel zpět. S okupovanou zónou chybí spojení.
BM už má zprávy z Ameriky, musí se dále informovat v Marseille. Hlavní potíž bude nakonec spočívat v hledání místa na lodi. Rád by zůstal, ale situace v Evropě se mu zdá beznadějná.
Přípis rukou Charlotty Martinů: ChM stále nemá zprávy od své rodiny. PS zřejmě dostal dopis od Jeana Rudolpha a Nelly Lousie Freyových.

It is impossible to maintain written communication with Paris.
Bohuslav Martinů has received letters from Paul and Maja Sacher dated 1 and 20 August and is glad for the information about the October performance of TWO CONCERTS.
He has no chance of finding the lost manuscripts. The ones he sent one by one to a friend in America have also been lost.
Unfortunately he can do nothing about the CONCERTA GROSSA. He has written several times to Nevers, but to no avail. Would it be possible to ask in Basel? It is a parcel of sheet music that Colette Frantz submitted to the Siamec factory in Nevers on 6/7. BM could perhaps write to Universal Edition, but doesn't want to attract too much attention. However, the piece will not be lost even if the manuscript is not found: there is material stored in Paris (along with the DVOJKONCERT material) and one copy is in America, although BM himself has not checked and corrected it.
BM doesn't even want to think about the other manuscripts.
BM has started work, writing FANTASIA FOR PIANO [the first movement of FANTASIA AND TOCCATA] and would like to start on the Sinfonia [SINFONIETTA GIOCOSA] for solo piano and small orchestra.
One of BM and Charlotte Martin's luggage was rescued by Mrs. de Lacone.
They have reports from Marcel Mihalovici, Tibor Harsányi and Henri Martelli. He and ChM hope to spend the winter in Cannes.
The last two letters from PS to BM have not been censored. BM wrote to the Morgan banking house in Paris but the letter was returned to him. There is no communication with the occupied zone.
BM already has news from America, he must make further inquiries in Marseilles. The main difficulty will ultimately be finding a place on the ship. He would like to stay, but the situation in Europe seems hopeless.
Handwritten note from Charlotte Martin: ChM still has no news from his family. PS has apparently received a letter from Jean Rudolph and Nelly Lousie Frey.
