Dr. v. Burgsdorff Prague, 17 May 1940. Antersantefekretär 20 Dear Secretary of State! On this day, the funeral of your wife's mother, the officials, employees and employees of the Office of the Imperial Protector pay special tribute to you. We mourn with you the heavy loss that fate has imposed on you. Even if it is natural that we lose our parents by death, this does not make the loss easier. Especially the death of a mother rinsing into the life of the son a gap that does not close again. It is necessary for me to convey to you, Mr State Secretary, the sincere feelings of following in the office of the Imperial Protector. H e il Hit le r ! Her very devoted Hrirasvorh
