Correspondence from Leah Hirsig to Dorothy Olsen
[EXTRACT]
[4 June 1925]
Your three letters arrived, I am sorry you are so badly off in health. I can't make out from your first letter whether the operation is for the black eye or for other things. Let me know how you are getting on. You might tell A.C. for me that his postscript did not impress me in the least. Did he suppose I wanted a thousand francs to buy a rattle for the baby [her child by William Barron]?
Seeing that he left me with 400 francs of Barron's money some five weeks ago, I can of course understand that he would need to know what I needed money for. There is no use writing to him. I did so three times a week for three weeks and merely got a stupid promise of cash that I knew he would not carry out.
