Sehr geehrter Herr Kollege!
Bitte haben Sie die Güte, beiliegende Karte Ihrer Frau Mutter zu übersenden, deren Adresse mir nicht sicher bekannt ist. Ich und meine Frau haben uns sehr gefreut, die liebenswürdige Frau hier kennen zu lernen, und hoffen, daß ihr Befinden, das hier nicht ganz zufriedenstellend war, sich seither gebessert hat.
Ich hatte ein wenig gehofft, daß Sie sich einmal hier befinden würden und ich so Gelegenheit hätte Sie kennen zu lernen, und bedauere, daß es nicht dazu gekommen ist.
Mit hochachtungsvollem Gruß bin ich
Ihr ergebener
B. Rathke.

Dear Colleague,
Please be so kind as to send the enclosed card to your mother, whose address I am unsure of. My wife and I were very pleased to meet the lovely woman here and hope that her health, which was not entirely satisfactory, has improved since then.
I had a hoped that you would be here one day and that I would have the opportunity to meet you, and I regret that it did not happen.
Sincerely,
B. Rathke
