Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash: Translation: "Dear Hana and Otto: We wrote to you recently and acknowledged receipt of package of figs. We also received the package sent via Red Cross. My wife was especially pleased to receive the latter. She is recuperating from a recent illness and in need of lots of rest. I also informed you that my mother passed away Dec 12, 1943 and asked you to inform the rest of the family. Otherwise we are quite well. We constantly wait for mail from you. Greetings."
