General
Letter. Ottó is sorry for not being able to join ALG in America to live with him. Much to his regret, he decided to stay in Hungary for good. The authorities had made emigration impossible by asking for certificates that he is not able to provide. Reunion with his brother was Ottó's reason for leaving the country. After their parents' death, he doesn't have close relatives in Hungary any more. But as soon as the officials noticed ALG's name on his application, they started to make the whole process very difficult. There are some self-affairs regarding him and also ALG that he can't list in this letter since it will surely be opened and read by somebody. Also, it is an endeavour for him to sell all his assets in order to cover the ever increasing expenses, only to find out later that his application will be denied. Recently he came across a letter that ALG had written to his father when he was ill in the army hospital. Reading it, Ottó was reassured that ALG's limitless and unconditional love for his father is a merit that needs no further comment. Hungarian
