Vienna, 3rd December 1918.

Regarding: Schiele estate.

Dear Mrs. Schiele!
In order to discuss the letter I received today from Dr. SCHLOSSAR, in which he details the claims of the HARMS family and asks for a statement by the 6th of this month, as well as in order to reach a decision concerning the request for compensation made by Professor HELLER, I ask that you and your daughter reliably come to see me on Thursday afternoon between 4 & 5 p.m. at my office.
Respectfully,
Alfred Spitzer

Most Honorable Mrs.
Marie SCHIELE,
VIENNA, VI, Gfrornergasse 7/1.
