Mother dearest,

I wish you a Happy New Year and everything of the best, especially the best of health! To all of you—I hope Mitya is also with you—I send greetings and good wishes. A big merci to Manyasha for sending the maps in the folder I recently received. Her friend[1] informed me she has received the receipt for the books.

In the new year Manyasha will surely be allowed to travel again!

Nochmals beste Glück-Wünsche.[2]

Yours,
V. U.
