Lieber Freund!
Seit lange höre ich Nichts von Dir. Wie geht es Dir den Deinigen und gemeinsamen Freunden? Hier zu Hause geht Alles gut, wie wohl Euler Dir erzählt hat. Wir freuen uns auf das neue Jahr, das wohl dem heissersehnsten Frieden bringen wird. Ich habe eine Kleinigkeit über inner Reibung zusammengeschieben, das hoffentlich bald von einer zweiten gefolgt wird. Sonst recht stille im Institut, weil alle Ausländer ausbleiben. Mein Assistent Demly hat ein Amerikastipendium erhalten. Mit den herzlichsten Wünschen für einen fröhlichen Weihnachten und ein glückliches neues Jahr von Haus zu Haus.
Dein treuer,
Svante Arrhenius

Dear Friend,
I haven’t heard any new from you in awhile. How are you, your family, and our mutual friends? Everything is going well here at home, as Euler probably told you. We look forward to the New Year, which will hopefully bring long awaited peace. I have put together a little something about internal friction, which I hope will soon be followed by a second. Otherwise it is quite quiet at the institute because the foreigners are staying away. My assistant Demly received a scholarship for America. With the warmest wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from our home to yours.
Yours truly,
Svante Arrhenius
