42BIS AVENUE HENRI MARTIN

9.2.[19]19

I have just received a note from Mr. Russell^[1] on de Laszlo's correspondence which [motivated?] his internment.

I hope that light will be shed promptly on this unfortunate affair, and that Laszlo will appear clearly innocent of this [pain?] that he has been accused of.

I have often thought of you and him during these long months which [illegible words] are deeply sad for both of you.

Would you be so kind to give me the news of his health: or [illegible words] been able to work during all this time?

Believe, dear Madam, in the assurance of my [illegible] best feelings.

Guiche
