Dear Mrs. Pratt,

Thank you very much for your check and letter. I do appreciate it.

My husband just went away for a few days to recuperate, as he is still not up to par.

Yes, the place that you saw near the Sherry-Netherland is where we have given our collection for sale, but so far they have sold few of our things. People seem to think however, that things will improve. Let's hope it will be soon.

Love from us all,

Cordially, Ray Schaffer [signed]
