Lieber Herr Dr. Bredig!
Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihren Brief. Ihr Gesuch ist da, wurde vorgemerkt und wird jetzt schon langsam erledigt; ich werde es zunächst einmal eine Zeitlang liegen lassen und dann langsam die nächsten Schritte tun, denn soviel ich verstehe kommt es Ihnen darauf an Zeit zu gewinnen. Wer auch für mich Ihr Eintritt nicht drängt, lässt sich das wohl gut machen.
Viele herzliche Grüsse!
Ihr ergebener
Mark

Dear Dr. Bredig,
Thank you very much for your letter. Your application is here, was recorded, and is now slowly being processed. I will let it sit for a while and then gradually take the next steps because I understand you're trying to buy time. That’s fine if nobody urges me to admit you right away.
Many warm regards!
Sincerely,
Mark
