My Dear, My Unique K[anka]!
I received today the communication from Baron Pasqualati in which I note that it is your wish that we should refrain from adopting any new measures. Meanwhile all the necessary written documents relating to this affair have been sent off to Pasqualati. Do be so kind as to inform him of this and ask him to postpone taking any step whatsoever. A council meeting is to be held here tomorrow; and the result of this meeting will perhaps be sent off to you and P[asqualati] by tomorrow evening – Meanwhile I would like you to read through the fresh statement addressed to the Landrechte which I have sent to Pasqualati, and to study the supplements very carefully -- You will then notice that you have not given accurate information to Wolf and to some other people – But what is certain is that in those documents there are enough proofs for whoever wants them. In the case of a man like Prince Kinsky, whose rectitude and magnanimity were known to all, how could I have thought of legal witnesses or of having anything in writing?
With the warmest affection and regard
I remain, in haste, your friend
