Budapest, 1914

My dear friend, Sir

I’ve met our friend, Dénes Kovács, by coincidence, and I would like to take this opportunity to give you his regards. I also hope that your exceptional art will provide you with the right position in London. And if you can benefit from your privileges, could you please use it for a very honest man, Dr Jenő Révész and his wife, who remained in London by pure chance. He is unsuitable for military service, as their certifications show.

This is the first time I ask you for a favour, please don’t be uninterested in my poor friend.

Yours truly,

Samu Boross
