PROF. DR. FREUD WIEN IX., BERGGASSE 19

Dear Dr Bose

Now I am in posession [sic] of all your sendings, the statue, its pedestal, the proceedings and the poem.  I feel gratefully elated, and accept these presents as a kind of compensation for the sad fact, that I have no chance of ever meeting yuo or any other member of your society [ The only man among you I know is Dr Berkeley Hill].  Please give my hearty thanks to all your members and accept it especially for yourself.

The statuette is charming, I gave it the place of honour on my desk.  As long as I can enjoy life it will recall to my mind the progress of Psychoanalysis, the proud conquests it has made in foreign countries and the kind feelings for me it has aroused in some of my contemporaries at least.

With affectionate wishes
yours
Sigm. Freud
