Walter Fewkes's] book 'Snake Ceremonials in Oraibi', 1903 and to come with Sudeck; is looking forward to Mary's new pastel painting; on the lecture: it will take place on 21/04/1923; could Max Adolph stay from 19 to 24/04/1923?; Warburg will rehearse the lecture on 19/04, will do corrections on 20/4 and then lecture on 21/04/1923; will Embden also come on 21/04/1923?; and Cassirer?; what about Max Adolph's travel to Teinach [with Eva Hertz]?; does not believe Mary that the family celebrated Easter on [Friday] 30/03, because the first Seder evening was 31/03/1923; Mary does not write anything about 'Easter Schnoog'; did they not hide the Easter eggs?; is annoyed that children did not sign her letters from Deutsch Evern; greetings to Detta [Marietta Warburg], Max Adolph, Frede; reminds Mary to use an ink pen, not a pencil |
