Dear Mr. de Laszlo

Trusting you and your dear family are in the best of health. I let you know according to your wish, that I got just to-day the notice to proceed to Wakefield on Monday the 16th of July. I am really very glad that it was possible in such a short time and I thank you very much for your kind assistance and help.

May I kindly ask you, if you didn’t posted [sic] any sending [sic] on my present address by this time, please do send it direct to Wakefield. I think they will reach me safely there if you writes [sic] only my name and present number on it as the camp is there not so big.

I am very anxious to see my friend Veress [sic]^[2] and hope to be able to get a place near him. I hope too, to get a good piano there to practise on, as I had here very few opportunity [sic] for practising. Thanking you again for your great help and hope to see you in near future.

I remain, with best wishes and kindest regards to Madam and yourself | yours very sincerely,

Francis Czeizner
