A PERSONAL LETTER WITH REMARKS ON EINSTEIN’S HEALTH

Einstein is writing to his eldest son regarding his planned trip to Switzerland to visit his relatives. Einstein offers him $500 for the trip, under the condition that he returned to the United States. “To lend money is not a good thing. I would be very glad if you could arrange to take Maja [Einstein’s sister] along with you.” The letter concludes: “I felt several times not very well; it is just as with an old Ford (a little tottering). But the work is getting along fine and I am also satisfied as fare as my personal life is concerned.”
