Summary
Acknowledging receipt of his telegram and letter. He, too, answered that he accepted the same conditions as Rosenberg and is happy that the arrangements have been made. Braque would like to know the exact date of the exhibition of his paintings in Rosenberg's gallery so that he can be sure to set aside enough time to finish them. Also, since he can spend only 5 or 6 days in Paris, he wants to be sure that he can see the exhibition. (in postscript) saying that he had written this letter the day before and that since then there have been more changes. He asks Rosenberg what he is going to do. Many things seem to be happening at once that are taking away his desire to work. He hopes that things will be cleared up in a way that will be profitable to both of them.
