Buliga Eugen

Dear Mr. Buliga!
I have only just now had the opportunity to write to you. I am happy for you to live in my house and for you to take over my belongings in the knowledge that they are in the hands of a honorable man. We can genuinely say that we are lost here and that we live in indescribable poverty. Life here is v[ery] exoensive, a loaf of bread costs 700 Lei, 1 L[iter] petrol 200, 1 kg sugar 500 – 700, and they are not available. It is so difficult to get a loaf of bread and that is so bitter that it is inedible. So I beg you Mr. Buliga to help me, to send me at least 10.000 Lei for the necessary food, that we will so God wishes when we coma home

pay you back. Please give the money to the lawyer Twers, who will give it to me at the next opportunity. Apart from that please send me a pair of old, dark, good trousers that I left in the cupboard in the bedroom or in the attic. You do not need to pay taxes on the house as I have a plus in trade taxes of more than 5.600 Lei and the remaining money please keep for me after you picked him up and paid for everything. There is a trunk with china in the attic, which is not to be used, please leave the lid closed, it belongs to my daughter. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping an unhappy man.
Compliments to wife and child. Kind regards.
