Unknown Date XVIII







The Day 30/12
Most Beloved Bronisia,

May happiness[1] simply flood you[2], me on the other hand, don’t give me more just always love me dear Bronia, I wish you from [my] whole heart. Whatever is most desirable to you, and that this new year will scatter all the sadness that has oppressed you up to this time. Be happy like that wild bird, and may God grant that the new year brings you everything your little heart might desire. This I wish you[3] This wishes you the one who loves you more than everything in the world. Forgive [me] that I can’t put that prettily since I, a poor peasant, don’t know how to make congratulatory remarks, just how, Bronia darling, to kiss you on the lips.
I remain forever
yours, Theodor

Goodbye [my] heart
And forgive [me] that I’m sending you this kind of
Postcard, since I couldn’t get anything else here
Bye   XXXXXXXXXX
