Dear Henri, Your last letter was dated October. I have written to you twice since then and my letters remain without a reply. What’s happening? As you still in Palestine, or perhaps you have decided not to write to me any more?  I am more and more anxious because that October letter was not very cheering. Are you still in the same demoralised state? Are you still with three blokes in an anonymous room? Have you any work? Have you taken up some activities, are you listening to music? So many questions that remain without replies. Can’t you overcome your stubbornness in remaining in Palestine? In my last letters I told you to live in France and then I would do all I could to help you.  But I see that this suggestions remains without an echo.
