At a […] taking over Laufer and both of them disappeared […]. I arrived here without a thing and […] a packet of clothes, salami, jam + other little things […].

All people want is to exchange food for clothes or soap. – The ruble is worth 3 leu here and supposedly it will be exchanged for reichsmarks within the next 14 days […] namely 20 ruble for a mark. It´s a good idea to reconcile Dori with Matzi or to bring them together again, but it would have to be initiated by E[di], perhaps a lorry could […] him there. Alb.
