I feel so embarrassed writing you because I cannot repay you even if I wanted to. Sales are so slow that I need the small income to live on and pay taxes. I always ponder about how to do it and how to satisfy you, but for now there is no way out. The people do not have money, nobody can buy anything and earning money is unthinkable. Because of the deflation, I have lost approx. 120,00.00 marks regarding my warehouse. Lost it and now I have to sell my goods for the purchasing price or less on a daily basis. The situation here in Germany, which I cannot even begin to explain to you, is frantic. We are now putting all our hope into the Hitler administration, if Adolf Hitler is not able to take over soon, there will be nothing left other than Bolshevism. 100,000 people do not have anything to eat, they live off of welfare. A 4-person family gets 22.00 marks a week. So 4 people are supposed to live with 22.00 marks for 7 days straight, buy heating and dress themselves! You can calculate that this is not enough to feed them. My dear Theodor, if the worst is not going to happen, then something has to change soon and then I hope to be able to meet my obligations again. I am so sorry, but the circumstances are to fault because it is my sincere wish to meet my obligations. Health-wise we are all fine, thank god! Dad, though, is not really feeling well since he had a minor stroke last year, which he has not seemed to recover from. Mother is much better and still bears her age well. My wife and 2 children are healthy, my youngest daughter is now 1 ½ years old and I am truly enjoying it. The children are the only thing that can bring happiness nowadays anyway. How are you, I hope you are fine. My dear Theodor, please do not be angry with me, I want to, but I am truly not able to. I send my regards to you and your family, father and mother also send their regards Yours, Hans Rehder Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
