De László fell ill in Venice and was sent to recuperate in the Tyrolean mountains near Bolzano. Once recovered, he did some studies which give him "great pleasure now to possess". He will soon leave for Paris to undertake some commissions. He should have gone to Madrid and Lisbon, but has recently met with the Queen of Spain and now plans to travel to Spain in January [1927]. He hopes Henry will postpone his marriage, and he is distressed about his brother's affairs. He thinks Münz's article is splendid
