Dearest Franz,
Tired to death and worn out, I write only to tell you that I have arrived at Paris, and that my address is Grand Hotel du Louvre (No. 364).
In a modest room on the third floor, overlooking the inner courts, I found at last the quiet position which is necessary to me.
I expect help from you. My difficulty is great. In a few days I shall write more calmly.
