Dear Carolien,
Hearty congratulations on your birthday; no doubt it will be
a festive day, this first birthday in your own home. I hope
this will be a very good and happy year for you. I hope you
received my last letter. Please write soon how everybody is; I
am longing to hear something again.
Herewith a small contribution to your scrapbook. All
is well with me, but I am up to my ears in work and have only a
moment to spare.
Greetings to all in the Poten; how I should like to look in
on you today!
Wishing you the best of luck,
Yours truly, Vincent
