[Translation from Hungarian]: "Little Piri [Piroska], take good care of Karcsi [Karoly]. My heart is aching for him. Kisses to all, and take good care of yourselves. Write if it's at all possible. I believe it's permitted to write at the end of every month. Many kisses, Klari. My little Karcsi, write!"
