Text

Start: Charlotte: I visited Alfred Kirschner in jail. I had on my red coat with the flared skirt, and my hair was quite long. Prison Official: Who are you , and who do you intend to visit today? Charlotte: I am the wife of Alfred Kirschner, of course.

[... … …]

End: Charlotte: Here’s a picture of Alfred with an Electrola gramophone. Ah! Yes! An old postage stamp, from East Prussia. Alfred was more intelligent than I. Still, that’s all he had left–scraps of paper, yes?
