Reading notes

Page 4 begins a second, separate letter to the same recipient; p. 5 is its folded wrapper addressed to “Monsieur Arthur Forbes, merchant … Lemberg”. The opening again reads “Moie Wielce Mci Panie Forbes, Mci Panie y Przyjacielu”, while the text and figures are partly illegible. This letter is not joined to the one on p. 2, and dates from the inventory card are not assigned to it.

Scope of the edition: Working partial transcription; gaps and uncertain readings are marked. No reliable date appears in the letter itself.
