My Brother,
Many thanks for your esteemed letter and for the books; The first volume of Priesthood and the fine treatment of the Mar. Epos [Malayan Epic?]. I agree with you entirely that an article on this should be written; I shall try to do it. Only, at present, I am so very busy with my book that I hardly have any time left for it.
I am surprised that Kurt[1] goes to school. I always remember him as a little child. It seemed to me when I was at your house that Kurt has a deep mind; that is what is inferred from his eyes. Perhaps Fritz[2] may be an artist.
Concerning your wish to have Macao postage stamps, I shall inform Mr. Basa about it.
Greetings!
Jose Rizal
P.S.
My congratulations on your article “Mr. Fabie and Historical Truth.” Fabie is an ignoramus who does not understand one-half of what he is blabbing about.
