Dear Harald!

Many thanks for your letters. It was terribly nice to hear that you have completely solved the summability question for Dirichlet series. Many congratulations, it’s a very impressive feat when one thinks of the whole thing. Pa asked if you would congratulate Nørlund on gold medal no. 2. I was up in front of Zeuthen, yesterday who had made trouble concerning my submissions in mathematics (there was a lack in equation theory) he was extremely pleasant and intensely inquired about you. If you have time someday, it would seemingly please him greatly to receive a letter from you. Afterwards, I was at Christiansen's to hear whether there would be any problem with beginning my exam on Monday. He was terribly lovely and said that when I had picked up the big assignment I could come to him to talk a little about the scope. Yesterday Moffen and I were at the theatre and saw La Dame aux Camélias a magnificent performance by Anna Larsen Now goodbye and lots of love, you will hear from me when I get the assignment.

Yours
Niels |
