L.G!
Nur kurz die Nachricht, dass ich Röhmann sprach und er sich sehr erfreut und anerkennend über deine Zusendungen aussprach; er sagte sogar seine letzten Arbeiten seien direkt durch die Deinigen ausgeregt. Schriftlichen Dank, scheint ungebräuchlich. Sonst nichts neues.
Herz. Gruss!
Dein R.A.

Dear G,
Some brief news! I spoke with (Franz) Röhmann and he was very pleased with and appreciative of your correspondence. He even said that his latest work was inspired by yours. Expressing gratitude by letter is rather unusual. Otherwise, nothing new!
Warm regards,
R.A.
