327. To Michele Besso
Lucerne, 1 October 1924
Dear Michele,
I just arrived here and have been put up at the Schweizerhof. I have to speak on
Saturday.[1]
Unfortunately, I can’t come to Bern because I have to steam off to Ley-
den. I’d be very happy if I could see you.
With warmest greetings, yours,
Albert.
328. To Elsa Einstein
Lucerne, 1 October 1924
Dear Else,
The
Karrs[1]
were very nice; they repented, even though they didn’t say anything
directly.[2]
So I let the business matters be, after ascertaining that they are well tak-
en care of. There’s supposed to be a terrible harvest; stock up well for the winter.
The
children[3]
were especially nice this time; they have turned out really fine. Ev-
erything’s gone smoothly up to now. On the 4th or 5th I’m steaming off to visit Un-
cle
Caesar.[4]
Best regards to all of you from your
Albert.
