Dear Francois Gerard:

I succeeded finally in speaking to Miss Isabelle Kemp and told her that your friend, Princess Chachavadze would be obliged to her for an answer to the proposition she had made.  Miss Kemp told me very charmingly that she had answered Princess C. a little while ago in the negative.  I am just telling you this whole story so that you may have a reason or excuse, for calling up this delightful woman should you want to.

Thanks for your little note about Madeleine.  I am really at a loss from here, to know what to do.  You are probably right as to the mercenary character of her visit, but not knowing what she has, I am unable to make any decision.  Should you have any suggestions to offer, I would be very much obliged to you.

With affectionate thoughts to Francoise and you,

Yours, 

(Germain Seligman)

Monsieur Francois Gerard Seligmann,
