8 May 193O  81 Harley Street  London W1

Dear Professor,

«IP4,0»My wife and I were both very much moved and pleased at receiving from you such a warm and hearty message of congratulation.  Thank you, and also Anna, very much indeed.  I am happy to say that the two people most concerned are thriving well.  Nesta May is a lusty child and well versed in | / lore.  She promises to play her part with great success.

I heard a rumour (from Yale) that you were confined to a sanatorium in Vienna, but am hoping from your letter and a long telegram from Eitingon ‑‑ neither of which indicate anything ‑‑ that this is some misunderstanding.  I wrote to E. and hope to have full news from him soon.

With our united thanks, and good wishes for a beneficial visit to Berlin

Yours always affectionately  Ernest Jones
