Description: [Translation/transcription]

29 December 1959

Just quickly before New Year, much love and best wishes to you all, and high spirits for Master Pepi, and don't take anything from the grill unless it's roasted like a chestnut. These taste really good, but you mustn't swallow the six feet or the wing shells or the heads, which are indigestible. One more look at the beautyful one before I go to bed, and all my love,

Always yours,

OK
