Dear Egon! –
Victory! –
Joy! – Now it will all
work out! – Thank you very much
for [your] kind card! – I do
hope that we will see
each other again
soon! I am now sleeping
in the dining hall – they left the
table in the middle
but of course our beds have
been put up to the right

nice here! – Best
and kind regards to everybody
Your brother-in-law
