summary
Letter written from both brothers to parents, sister and brother-in-law. They thank for the 8RM and the packet with gloves,
ear muffs and socks. We are happy there is someone in the household with a good sense of humour because that is important to
health. They mention it is now the thick of winter with frost.

Notes
- Correspondence from Josef DRONG and Anton DRAG, both prisoners in SACHSENHAUSEN, who were probably brothers even though their names are written differently and sometimes in more than one way. Their prisoner numbers are in close sequence which shows they probably arrived at the camp at the same time. Except where noted, the letters of both are addressed to Franz DRONG (or Drag) in Chocznia then in Wadowitz in Upper Silesia. They are addressed to “dear parents, sister and brother-in-law ».
