I would very much like to save you the trouble of written
comments and I would like therefore to ask the question
of whether it would suit you if my wife and I, during our
vacation in September which we plan to spend in England,
if we could meet with you at your convenience.
Please let me know where and when - if at all - you will
give me the benefit of a personal meeting with you.
Yours faithfully,
very devotedly,
Johannes Jaenicke.
Robert’s modest handwritten reply, Plate (18.3), was hardly encouraging for
Jaenicke, playing down as it did the extent to which he thought he could
help, but nevertheless it was accommodating and he and Emily seemed more
than willing to arrange a meeting at St Helier at a mutually convenient time;
