Tuesday Jan 8


As by impulse I remained at
home tonight saddened for hours
as Herman Dunast suddenly entered
I knew that not being in my
house for quite a long time he
did not bring me any pleasant
news.

I am shocked into helplessness
My most devoted relative
my beloved cousin Freida
Kurtzberg is dead, what a
tremendous loss to me a loss
that can never be replaced,
I am too dazed to make
an Eulogy now.

I went around with Herman
to wake up and call up
some relatives telling them
the distressing news and
asking them to give to our
beloved departed the last honors
in the morning.
