Dearest Kitty, I'm not really in the mood for pranks (see the date). On the contrary, today I can safely quote the saying 'Misfortunes never come singly'.
First, Mr Kleiman, our merry ray of sunshine, had another bout of gastrointestinal haemorrhaging yesterday and will have to stay in bed for at least three weeks. I should tell you that his stomach has been bothering him quite a bit, and there's no cure. Second, Bep has flu. Third, Mr Voskuijl has to go into hospital next week. He probably has an ulcer and will have to undergo surgery. Fourth, the managers of Pomosin Industries came from Frankfurt to discuss the new Opekta deliveries. Father had gone over the important points with Mr Kleiman, and there wasn't enough time to give Mr Kugler a thorough briefing.
