Vítězslava Kaprálová apologizes for the delay of the letter. She had a cold again just as [Auguste Mangeot, with whom she wanted to discuss the question of her schooling] returned. The partita is 'at her throat again'. She is working on the first movement again, but Bohuslav Martinů is still not happy with it. "What I write one day, he crosses out the next, there can't be a worse school." She is not working on any new composition, but has chosen a libretto by [Nikolai Vasilyevich] Gogol. Vítězslava Kapralova Sr. should come to Paris as soon as the weather is warmer. It is uncertain about the Martinů's stay at the Three Pumps [Wells], they are about to move. The Kapráls are to rent a room and if the Martins arrive, they will somehow move in together upstairs. VK insists that no master's [school of the Prague Conservatoire] will be cancelled, that BM is already occupied.
