EINSTEIN, Albert. Autograph letter signed ('Albert') to his first wife, Mileva, n.p., n.d. ('Donnerstag'), one page, 4to ; with an autograph letter signed to Mileva on the verso by his younger son, Eduard ('Teddy'). Einstein has after much reflection decided to leave the children in Kiel, while he himself is off to Geneva. Around the beginning of August he will come on his way back to Kiel to visit Mileva in Zurich if she is there: if not, she is to write to him at the 'Commission de la coopération intellectuelle', at the League of Nations in Geneva. The letter ends with comments on the children 'Albert is a practical chap, though Tete [Eduard] seems naturally still slightly an embryo'. The letter from Teddy repeats his father's plans, consoling his mother on her loneliness with the thought that she is at least spared her children's presence for a while; he has been sailing, but the great heat has prevented him from sending a poem with each letter as promised.
