Correspondence from Bertha Busch to Gerald Yorke
Karlsruherstrasse 2. Berlin-Halensee.
November 24, 1931.
Dear boy
You are a darling—anyhow I think so the way you flatter me, not to say about the business point—you are so perfectly right—but I did not mean to put things over in England—I want A.C. to get known here first—and I am doing every thing possible—there surely is [illegible] money in his assets—we only have to pull the right string—all we need is capital—we cannot force a thing—but I am sure we will succeed—Why not ask Capt. Ochs, he will have a few money people on hand to put money in to a good business—You are surely able to convince people that it means business.
A.C. is out playing chess—so I got the afternoon for myself and I can write with [illegible] any [illegible]. I am still waiting for the tea—please write soon—
Love.
Yours,
Bill
Wednesday.
Yours just in to Bill. Not "do away with". Let "go" I think! I dunno.
No tea yet. [illegible]—you might persuade [illegible] and [illegible] to keep up supplies for a month or two if you explain the situation. Not sure how Schiffers [Margo and Marcellus] will act; but have found a girl—with a rich man to back her—who wants to play Monica in Mortaldello. It was I that told Bill to say I was treating her badly—she couldn't think of what to say—I too who analysed the bronchitis: I haven't seen a doctor for months. Can't explain plan about pamphlets now: too busy. "Confidence," not yet ready. This living from day to day is terrible.
We simply must have a springboard of 6 clear months without worry and with freedom to move about and meet people. The rest would follow automatically.
Bill is very much better; but every time some [illegible] bill comes in she staggers under the blow! Oh hell!
