Dear Kietz,
Give the enclosed letter to your friend Lindemann at once. It contains a consultation which he has granted me through Müller.
Write to me the same time he does! You owe me an answer especially as regards my books!
Books I shall write no longer but—if Lindemann helps me—soon—the complete Siegfried!
Goodbye, my dear fellow!
Your
Richard
