Photocopy of an autograph letter signed from Adolph Brodsky to Edvard Grieg

This photocopy is almost completely illegible and a note in Norwegian to this effect has been attached. In this letter to "Lieber Freund", Edvard Grieg, occasional dates [31 July] and London are legible. Anna Brodsky has added a note of thanks for the book illustrated with interesting photographs. Anna can scarcely write because of the tragic events in Russia. Nina mentions sending photographs from the previous summer at Christmas. Adolph looks quite different without his moustache. [A translation by I.E. Stotvig of an article by Oystein Gaukstad entitled "Edvard Grieg and Adolph Brodsky" in Norwegian Music Magazine summarises this letter: Brodsky answers on the 18th May that he had done everything to cancel the concert arrangements, but in vain. However, he can manage a short visit on the 11th-18th June. "We celebrated our silver anniversary quietly in Southport {a port near Manchester}. We were only the two of us. We went out for walks and I read in Russian "A noble nest" by Turgenev for my wife. [On their return home they received flowers, presents and telegrams. At the orchestra class, they received an ovation with speeches and presents from the students.] The original is dated 18 May 1905, and it is unclear when this photocopy was made.
