Ilse Wolfsburg writes to Max Bredig (1902-1977) about her fiance, Fritz Hochwald's (1897-1968) immigration to the United States. She says Hochwald has been released from the Miranda De Ebro concentration camp, and is currently in Madrid, but is unsure when he will arrive in Philadelphia. She asks if it is possible to know the passenger lists of the ships before they arrive. This issue is pressing for her because she needs to know if she needs to cancel a teaching contract or not.
