My dear Friend,-
If it is not putting you to too much
trouble, will you see what you can do to locate a
trunk which icy brother-in-law, Mr .Alfred Wallerstein,
of Picard & Company, 286 Fifth Avenue, New York City,
was obliged to leave at Strassburg through which place
he passed on the morning of August 1st when the war

Strassburg to whom I could write of the matter but
it occurred to me that you would probably have some
friend there who would be willing to make inquiry.
If you should succeed in locating it and can indicate
