Transcript of the letter reads: "Now the matter is this: come over at once without waiting any more time in Europe. There is nothing to be got there, everything here. You better start with the idea, that you will never go back except for a visit. I never saw a sensible man, who had lived a few years in the United states, willing to go back to Europe to stay. By the way, you will have to work here, and a good deal of it, but there is plenty of time left to have a good time, this come over at once. Best regards in hoping to see you soon personally. Yours, Chas. P. Steinmetz."
