R. had another bad night! … Mr Skutsch is travelling to Leipzig to consult a lawyer! –– Sergeant Schlickau continues his teaching, and significant progress is already evident! …
In the evening, Mr Glatz, a very cultivated and agreeably handsome man, his voice is powerful, but the outcome of the lessons he has received is hopeless! –
A letter from E. Nietzsche; she agrees, at my request, to come and look after my children during my absence; a great reassurance.
