This shall just be a friendly greeting in the midst of my business. It was nice to hear that you are so well and that you like the family so well, please give them manifold greetings. We had a nice letter from Jenny, today, who asked us to send “many times” greetings when we wrote to you. I am quite diligent these last days but I do take a short walk with “the little one” who additionally serves as my alarm clock in the morning; I am ashamed to report that today I let it ring 3 quarter strokes in a row, as my laziness tempted me to remain in bed. Pa is still busy over at the laboratory and sends his love as does Ma. Now, goodbye for today. When I have completed the written exam, you will hear from me.
