XII F.- 7/41. hn 0 For your letter of 18.3.1942 that I received days ago via detours, I thank you very much. For the greetings and good Winsche Karl Hermann Frank's thank you quite warmly. The journey and recovery is now over. It is very good for me. If you believe that you can somehow go to my hand and give me a finger point, I would be very grateful to you. In the saws of our surroundings everything outsourced wood is bought out. One can only find fresh cut and for my work much too weak post en. What I needed would be: oak, nut tree, linden tree and cherry, l5-20 cm and above, strong posts. (half logs) outsources, first-class wood. For your efforts in advance nice thanks. Heil Hitler!
