Dear Mr. Schädel,
I’ve sent several letters to you but unfortunately I haven’t received any answer. Neither have I received any answer from Mr. Margulies. As the messenger will tell you, I am in a very bad state here. I have no money but even if I had some, it would be difficult to buy anything. I sold or exchanged almost all my belongings for food. I beg you to take pity on me and my unhappy family as otherwise we are going to perish. Help to get someone to send me something. Perhaps
I may be lucky enough to come back, and then I will pay it back! Think of the conditions in Edinetz which were far better than here, as people who were there say. How are you and your wife? What do your children write?I thank you in advance for your kind intervention. I hope it won’t fail to be successful. – Kind regards to you and your family, your unhappy
Ausländer
Please send kind regards to the dear Rudich family as well as to Mr. Margulies and everyone. – Olga
