杉本鉞子先生の書簡発見記事

 

著名な「杉本鉞子先生の未発見書簡」、10月19日(金)、新潟日報1面の記事です。

The late Mrs. Etsuko Sugimoto’s rare letter was found! It was printed on Niigata-Nippo on Friday, November 19th.

 

画像が粗く、英文タイプに少し難儀しました。

Because the picture of her letter in the article was so rough that it was a little hard for Yoshy to type her letter here.

 

今日も深夜になっていますので、とりあえず、英文のみ、記載致します。

As it’s been in the midnight, let me write her English here.

 

和訳と、先生の略歴等は、近々に発表致します。

This Japanese translated by Yoshy is going to be uploaded in the near future including her history, etc.

 

************* 

My dear Mr. Stillharmer,

Your constant letter was received with appreciation. It was very kind of you and Mrs. Bave to have called upon me and my little family.

 

Through Mrs. Bave, I learned that an account of this illness of the honored member in your household is needed the presence of Mrs. Stillharmer at home.

 

I appreciate it thoroughly. Please let me allow to make an acquaintance with her in future.

 

Mrs. Bave is inviting both my daughter and myself to her home, so I hope to have the pleasure of seeing you.

 

In deep respect,

Etsu Inagaki Sugimoto
