Abstract
A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. He informs her his parents have sent him a letter from home, and he provides a translation of the German correspondence for her to read. In it, his parents discuss their Heartbreak at his brother Joseph losing everything and moving to the Americas. While Hafner doesn't respect his brother, he says his brother's actions are almost noble because he had the courage and independence to leave their home behind. Hafner's parents also give congratulations and love to their future daughter-in-law.
