Honoured Friend!
I must return the money you kindly advanced to me, but I should like to hand it to you in person, because I have something else to discuss with you. Any hour this afternoon would be convenient to us, and tomorrow morning too, if it suits you. But please do not fix too early an hour, for the condition of my health does not permit me to go out very early. Further, please be so kind as to let me know whether I am to call at your rooms in the Kohlmarkt or go to your house.
Ever your admirer and your grateful
L. v. Beethoven
