Innsbruck, Feb. 22nd 08.
Dear Friend Ed: -
Well finally the book-binder showed up with your book - it took over 2 weeks to have it bound. I just send it through Toni and it will come soon. Will send the bill as soon as it comes. Say Ed, about 10 days ago I received the news of my sisters (32 yrs. old) death - will tell you more in next letter - Remember her in mass for my sake - will you? Two days later Hufker rec'd a cablegram to come home - father is sick. Lou left 2 days ago. There are more things - such as Schiff is sick etc. - will write soon.
From old socie Joe
