They have known me since their earliest youth, which makes me believe that they will not betray me if I suggest that certain questions should be left open and unanswered. It is better if you do not make any further assumptions about Charles' case, and it is urgent that you do not reveal more to his mother than you already suspect. If I visit you tomorrow, Charles will have fled. No one else must know about it. He was mad, and he fled. You can tell your mother about this madness, as soon as you stop sending her letters in his name, which you have written with a typewriter. I would like to advise you to go to Atlantic City and rest there. God knows that you need this after this shock, just as I do. I am going to the South for a while to calm down and regain my strength. So please do not ask me any questions when I visit you. It could be that something is going wrong, but I would tell you about it. I do not assume, however. There will be nothing left to worry about, because Charles will be in greater safety. He is already in greater safety than you can imagine.
