Dear Mohr,

I shall send you money tomorrow, our cashier had no more notes this afternoon. Do not worry about the “squeezing”; I only wish there were more to squeeze out, but bear in mind too that in 6 weeks we have to pay the £150 with interest, and Borkheim says the interest will bring the thing to £165!! I think you will have to make up your mind to go to Holland; we cannot “afford” to borrow at such interest.

Faucher made me laugh a lot. Quite the noble impudence of this young fellow. The patronising introduction, and then criticism (and what criticism!) of a perfectly elementary matter, in which you present the views of the economists, thus merely sum up—from your own things he wisely keeps his hands off. Very good also is his admission that the present generation, including Faucher, knows nothing of either Jacob or Joseph, thus confirming your judgment that they “really have learned nothing”. The impudence of the fellow is, by the way, comical. He absolutely presupposes that his public knows nothing, wants to learn nothing, and even wants to read nothing but such Faucherian piss. And in this the man is right.

Best greetings,
Your F. E.
