Dear Friends and Relatives:-

Received your letter a few days ago and was glad to hear that are all well and that you will be able to start for this country in a short time. You know what to do on arival and we will be at the train to meet you.

It is impossible for me to send anything for Christmas this year as I am very busy and will be for some time. There is always a lot of work in my business during the Christmas holidays. I will try to send something in the near future.

We are all well and enjoying the best of health and hope you are the same. The weather is sure fine here for this season of the year.

Well folks, as I am very busy, I think I had best close for this time. I will try to write more the next. With best wishes for a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy and Prosperous New Year, and Hoping to see Hans safe in this country in a short time, I am, as ever,

Yours,

William W. Weinhardt
