Barbarous Friend!

       I received today from the Kingdom of Westphalia the information I asked for in my letter - Your humble servant is being offered a yearly salary of 600 gold ducats - All good wishes. Send me word as soon as you have left the state of barbarism and returned to civilization -

                                                     Your friend
