Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů hopes that Charlotte Martinů received his letter sent to Pierrefonds. He informs that Mama [Karolina Martinů] and Marie [Martinů] are recovering from their stay in hospital. He and [Stanislav] Novák, who is with him in Polička, are planning a trip to the area today and want to visit [Jan] Masaryk, although it is not certain whether the meeting will take place. Herberta [Masaryk] wrote to him about the incident with her car, which she lent to a friend, but fortunately no one was hurt. BM will have to spend one or two days in Prague for the meeting with [Juliet] Arányi, who is enthusiastic about CONCERTINA PRO KLAVIER AND ORCHESTRA. This stop, however, will not delay his arrival at ChM. BM plans to stay overnight in Prague with [Jindrich] Honzl.

NoteThe correspondence is accompanied by notes by Jaroslav Mihule. JM erroneously dates the letter in his note to 27 July 1938, which does not correspond to the handwritten date BM "vendredi" = Friday. On the letter itself there is an inscription 29 July 1938.
