Dear Sir

Please find enclosed the final statement of the Mission's account. It is only for a few days that I have settled the price of the petrol supplied by the Legation. I hope you have received the parcel of the valise as well as the packet of newspapers which had published the information relating to your Mission. I would be very happy to be able to be of use to you and am at your disposal for anything you may need.

Please convey, I beg you, my respectful regards to Madame and to Mademoiselle Schaeffer.

Respectfully yours

[illegible]
