31st December 1937 31st December 1937 1/0 31st December 1937 Sarvar to 27 Queen Square, Bath Dear Madeleine! I feel very bad indeed for not having thanked you much sooner for the lovely book. I am reading it and am quite delighted to see all the lovely pictures. I never realized before what an interesting and important place Bath was. It must be fun to live there. Thank you ever so much for the book. Today I got your letter and made up my mind to answer immediately. We got a giant Xmas tree full of sweets and all the family is very busy eating them. And we got heaps of presents too. Bags, gloves, shoes, shawls and hankies. And heaps of books and velvet for evening coat and silk for teagown and silk for nightgown. I want to sew them myself. And we got lovely embroidered belt and collar, very much like Mary’s for trimming a sand coloured summer dress. And foto’s of Deidi’s wedding and the Silver Jubilee beautifully framed. It is very cold here 18° and the pond in our park is frozen. So we go skating. Muck is very busy imitating Cecilia Colledge, but I enjoy the ice hockey. It is the most marvellous sport you can imagine, much nicer than tennis or football. As there is some snow too, we go salatzky. That’s great fun too. You tie all the little sledges behind the big one drawn by the horses. As we have no mountains or hills here we don’t go sleighing. But salatzky makes up for everything. Rasso has had his first riding lessons. He rides my horse and the horse understands every word Papi orders and Rasso has to do nothing except sit on its back and watch. I am very glad Ludwig has come for the holidays. He must go back however, the day after tomorrow. He likes very much being a soldier. I enjoyed my holidays by eating and doing nothing, just sitting here and eating. Much love and a very appy and prosperous New Year.

Ref: 23.08.1947 - 17/17 Notes on 'Maćica Serbska' (JB:Bautzen:8/82): Maćica Serbska – the oldest cultural association of the Serbołużic people, existing in the years 1845–1948, reactivated in 1990. The activity of Maćica Srpska was interrupted in 1937 by the national socialist authorities of Germany. At that time, the last, 170th issue of Časopis was published. In 1941, the remaining property of the organisation was confiscated – the Serbian House became the property of the city of Bautzen, and the Maćica collections were transferred to the city museum. In 1945, during the battles for Bautzen, the Serbian House was damaged. After World War II, the association resumed its activities to a limited extent, focusing mainly on the fields of linguistics and history. As a result of the consolidation of cultural organisations ordered by the Saxon authorities, Maćica was incorporated into Domowina in 1948, where it operated as its 'Scientific Department' for a year. In 1951, the Institute of Sorbian Folk Studies began its operations. The remains of the collections of Maćica Srpska were divided between the Institute (Central Sorbian Library, Sorbian Cultural Archive) and the Lusatian Museum. In 1956, Dom Serbian was transferred by Domowina to the East German state. Source: Wikipedia Contact Brief History to inform us of additional information regarding this page
