Postcard to Sala Garncarz, in German, Sosnowitz, Poland, January

NYPL, Dorot Jewish Division, Sala Garncarz Collection
Much beloved sister Sala,
To begin with, I can inform you that with me everything is
fine, everyone’s well, the dear children also. I received
your postcard and read it with much pleasure, I’m very
grateful. Besides, I can tell you that [I] sent you a [package]
with clothes the other week, containing a night gown, a pair
of pants... a spoon, a bar of soap and regards from Mrs. Hamburger.
If you get it, please write me what you received exactly.
My dear sister, don’t worry. Keep up your strength and,
most important, stay well. Don’t worry about Purim. We all
will have enough to eat at... In the meantime, if you need anything,
let me know, I’ll send it to you, if I can. Then also write
me, if you get mail from him [Laja Dina and Sala’s brother
Moshe David, who had been sent to a labor camp] and if you’re
writing him in return, write about you in great detail and all
the good things. Regarding the payment from your work through
the community I can’t get it, so see if you can.
– L.D. [Laja Dina]
