Ludwig, Emil (1914) | Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust

The document contains a letter sent from the Berliner Handels-Gesellschaft to Sir Matthew from Emil Ludwig in 1914. The language of the letter is in German. Roughly translated:

“To Sir Matthew,

The bearer of this letter, Mr. Emil Ludwig, is the letter writer, this name in Germany has a good ring. It is represented currently by interest of our distinguished paper route, the Berlin Journal, and I believe, that is through how he made your acquaintance. I am pleased, that I after a long time ago had an opportunity to find, a connection with you and you to admire your younger sister by my conveying my respects. Woe is me, for we last saw her, no more in England, but I hope, that my path in the near future here and there will lead to it. One big joy I have, when you will again come to Germany and of me be reminded.

In sincere thanks and devotion yours,

Emil Ludwig”
