Abstract

Handwritten letter from the Gonda family to C.D. Spivak. The letter expresses how surprised the family is from the news of their father passing away. Based on a previous letter from Spivak, they thought Louis Gonda would recover because Spivak gave them reassurance that he was doing okay. They also request that Spivak sends any belongings left behind from Louis such as a watch, gold chain, pin, clothing, and letters. They also request to know the location of his grave, as well as obtain the death certificate. The family explains that they are in poor circumstances and will not be able to pay Spivak back right away, but they will try their best. The letter is signed "Yours ever gratefully, H. Gonda on behalf of Mrs. Gonda, Margaret, Lily, Helen, and Robert Gonda" with their New York City address at the bottom.
