Dear Dr. Jonas,

The mail just returned the enclosed card to me.¹ Thus I am sending it herewith and note at this opportunity that Hoboken² and his wife visited us here and remained from Tuesday to Thursday. They were both extremely cordial, nice and correct. Thus what I wish for you and for me should proceed.
