" Where was I when you came, my dear friend!... And how much I regretted my absence!

Me, who had been waiting for you for so long! And friend Stevens surely did not think of the sweet yet so consuming times I am currently experiencing to the point of letting spiders take their ease on my ceiling that I would come to show you. After the 20th of this month, please let me know, and then I will wait for you. Best regards, please give my regards to our friend Leopold.
