My very dear mother Griffin.

I thank you so much for your birthday – wishes. You were the first in the morning. Even my mothers didn’t come before 12o’clock.

This picture isn’t exactly a photograph of me, but pen, [indecipherable word] of my coming resilience. Even the [indecipherable word] Dad is to be seen. The cello has already changed into money. Sad fact: it is a joy to live, all my love to you, yours Klaus. please give my kindest regards to your husband.
