Content and physical description
ContentMS thanks very much for the letter. She is very sorry she missed Jimmy's [F. James Rybka] visit. Describes Bohus' last days. He did not give in to any temptation to return [to Czechoslovakia] even when his brother and sister were seriously ill. Describes Bohuš's relief when she suggested that he find a quiet place where his body could rest until his country was liberated. He discloses to whom Bohus's will fell. Charlotte now lives in France with her family, planning to buy a house near Compiègne. She speaks of Frank often, a pity he did not have the opportunity to see his friend in his final days. He had courage to the last moment, as he had all his life, he passed it on to the doctors. Paul Sacher sends his regards.
