Lieber Herr Jonas! Also am Mittwoch 10-11^h. erwarte ich Sie zur ersten Stunde.¹ Sie klammern “Vormittag” ein, woraus ich schließe, daß Sie auf Vm. Wert legen. Dies geschieht also. Auf Wiedersehen am 1. X.

Dear Mr. Jonas, Then I will expect you Wednesday from 10 to 11 for the first lesson.¹ You enclose “morning” in brackets, from which I infer that morning is important to you. So be it then. Until we meet on October 1.

Yours,
[ sign’d: ] H. Schenker
