Marie Martinů děkuje za dopis z 24.10.1958. Je samozřejmé, že se Karel Šebánek nemohl vydat na pohřeb, Karel N[ovák] ho hned omlouval. Pan Klement poslal partituru [SEXTETU, H 174?], s omluvou za zpoždění, pořizoval opisy partitury, protože ji mají často na programu. Nyní opisuje na přání KŠ partitury, které jsou ve zdejším Muzeu: HRY O MARII; VESELOHRA NA MOSTĚ; ŠPALÍČEK I., II., III.; INVENCE; INSTRUKTIVNÍ SONATINA; DIVADLO ZA BRÁNOU; SMYČCOVÝ KVARTET I? [sic], III., IV.; hlasy k MALÉ TANEČNÍ SUITĚ I. až IV.; CONCERTINO PRO VIOLONCELLO; KOUZELNÉ NOCI; IŠTAR; MODRÁ HODINA. Menších partitur k prvotinám je daleko více. Myslí na KŠ a jeho starosti se sestrou, možná že ho dopis MM už nezastihne v Praze. Ať napíše, jestli aspoň telefonicky mohli s BM mluvit. A až to bude možné, ať MM také sdělí info ohledně Svazu, jak o tom psala v minulém dopise. MM to má s nervy už trochu lepší, nechodí do města, jen na Dušičky, ale to se jí to opět pobouřilo, musí být v klidu. Bude-li KŠ potřebovat určitější zprávy o partiturách, ať napíše. MM prosí, ať jí někdo (třeba "druhý Karel [Novák?]) pošle dva programy z premiéry ROMANCE, bylo to prý moc krásné a ona ani neví, co je v libretu. Jeden program dá do Muzea, druhý si nechá sama.

Marie Martinů thanks for the letter of 24.10.1958. It goes without saying that Karel Šebánek could not go to the funeral, Karel N[ovák] immediately excused him. Mr. Klement sent the score [SEXTETU, H 174?], with apologies for the delay, he made copies of the score as they often have it on the programme. He is now describing the scores that are in the local Museum at the request of KS: PLAYS ABOUT MARY; MERRIMENT ON THE BRIDGE; SPIEL I., II., III.; INVENTION; INSTRUCTIONAL SONATINA; THEATRE BEYOND THE GATE; STRING QUARTET I? [sic], III., IV.; voices for LITTLE DANCE SUITE I. to IV.; CONCERTINO FOR VIOLONCELLO; BEAUTIFUL NIGHTS; Ishtar; BLUE HOUR. There are many more smaller scores for first works. He thinks of KS and his worries with his sister, perhaps MM's letter will not reach him in Prague. Have him write to see if they could at least talk to BM by phone. And when it is possible, also let MM give info about the Union as she wrote about it in her last letter. MM's nerves are a bit better, she doesn't go into town, only on Soulstice, but she's been outraged again, she needs to be calm. If KS needs more definite news about the scores, let her write. MM asks that someone (perhaps 'the other Karel [Novák?]) send her two programmes from the premiere of ROMANCE, she says it was very beautiful and she doesn't even know what's in the libretto. She will give one of the programmes to the Museum and keep the other one herself.
