Translation of the Transcription:

Salzburg 2nd Nov.[ember] 1918.

Dear Mr. [Anton] Peschka

I would like to express my deepest sympathy on the terrible loss that you and your wife and all of us alike have suffered who are young and artists. In Egon Schiele I have lost a caring friend and a most devoted colleague whom I will never forget.
My wife also sends you her condolences.
Yours most respectfully,
F. A. [Felix Albrecht] Harta
