Hi Jerry,

no, unfortunately I'm not able to read this letter, yet.- But perhaps it is possible, to make a new and better scan and send it unsharpened to me?
You're right, the letter is written in very German style, and if I'm right (very uncertain!!!) the text begins with:
"dayn post kartel, un di brief vos host bezamen tsushikt tsu dayne libe elterin hob ikh erhalten. mikh frayt zeyer vos bist tsufriden mit der reyze nokh amerike/
do in russland host du gor nit...."
By the way, I'm not sure, if the 4th page really is the last page of the letter.

In fact, the scan of this letter is quite good. You can blow up the scan by clicking on "Click here to see the image in a separate window".
