Content and physical description
ContentPaul Sacher hopes that Bohuslav Martinů received a letter from Maja Sacher dated 12 September. He himself received a postcard from BM dated 3 September and promises to keep the material for the CONCERT FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA [No. 2].
Nelly Louise and Jean Rudolph Frey have gone to Chile and are living in Santiago. PS asks the addressees to pick up the three boxes of books in Marseilles (or in [Lisbon] if they have them shipped there) that NLF and JRF had to leave there in a hurry, and take them with them to the USA. From there they would then send the boxes to Nelly Louise Frey in Chile. If the addressees needed a certificate for this, the writers could not serve them, as the connection with England was broken.
PS sent 5,000 francs to the addressees. Asks for the date when their ship is due to leave.
