Federico Schnell tells Max Bredig (1902-1944) that he no longer has a way to write to his brother, Alfred Schnell (1900-1944), and sister-in-law, Eva Schnell (1913-1944). Despite that, he does believe that they are still alive and have escaped deportation. Schnell ends the letter with some personal updates and wishes Bredig well.
