Dear Flora!
We received your telegram today. We’re so happy to finally have your address. We had to leave Karlsruhe very quickly and were able
to pack very few things to take with us. We have urgent need for underclothing, pinafores, house slippers for the children. The shoes in size 25, 30 and 38. Also 2 wash cloths and food would be very welcome. Perlman could certainly help us also with money. Our surety bond as an affidavit of support must be sent to the Consulate in Marseille and a copy of it to us. For the children’s sake alone, help is urgently needed. Items you send should please be simple and sturdy. We hope you and all our family are well and healthy. I ask you once again with all my heart for help so quickly you can. My address is Rosa Stern,
Camp de Gurs, Basses Pyrénées, France, Block K, Barrack 12.
Moritz is housed just a few minutes away from me and the children, and we can speak to each other often.
Heartfelt greetings and kisses
Rosa and family
Dear Flora, I hope you are well. There are supposedly visitor visas as well for the USA. Please find out about this. If a surety bond is stood as an affidavit of support for us, we can leave this internment camp and live in France. Please also inquire with the HICEM , dear Flora.
Warm regards, Moritz
We need help urgently.
