Leutstetten to 27 Queen Square, Bath

Dear Madeleine,

Thank you so much for your good wishes for my engagement. I am very happy, I have found the best man one can imagine and we are awaiting with impatience for the day of our marriage. We fixed it to be the 19th August. It will be at Nymphenburg, a beautiful castle at the end of Munich, where I was born and where we always lived until after the Great War. Later I will live at the south of France near Cannes. We want to pass our honeymoon in Italy.

I was very glad that you are coming to Germany for the summer. If you come to Bavaria we hope to see you too one day. You could visit us in August when you are in Munich. If you come in the beginning of August I could still see you and you would also see my fiancée, only don’t come in the last days before my wedding because we would have no time then. In Bavaria there are many beautiful towns to see, Wurzburg, Nurnberg, Rothenburg, Dinkelsbuhl, that is a little town just so now as it was hundred’s of years ago, Regensburg, Landshut, Hugsburg, Lindau and Munich and you would also go in the mountains. They are grand you will see. Muck is very pleased with the book you sent her, Loll will send you some photos, it is one she took on the sailing boat of me and my fiancée. Now I am a little lonely here because he had to go back to France to get some papers for our wedding.

I hope soon to hear from you again and of your plans for the summer.

With my love,

Deidi
