To: Nikolaus Zmeskall von Domanovecz
Vienna, January 24, 1813

Anderson v1 pg401- letter #401


       We inform you, most excellent Z[meskall], of this and that, from which you may select the best; and we are quite (dreadfully!) attached to you – We hear that you have letters from B. for us and we beg you to let us have them – Are you free today? If so, you will find me at the Schwan – if not, well then no doubt we shall meet somewhere else –

                                                  Your friend and composer
                                                                          Beethoven
