The letter:

Darmstadt, 2 October [?]
My dear Ernie,
I was so pleased to have your letter, and now I begin on a sheet of my own paper to write to you — upside down alas! Froggy misses you. I think very much [of you] & Charlie too — if he could speak! only his spirits get the better of his sorrow when he goes out.

We send you & dear Papa much love, also to dear Grandmama, Uncles & Aunts.
Your loving Alix

[P. S.] Many kisses.

Miss Jackson sends you her best love.

Above: Alix.

Above: Ernst.
