- 22 September 1914 /
States that s/he started making enquiries about Ifor upon receipt of his letter of 16 September. Starting with the Hotel Trefzer? where he had been staying and then the criminal police. From the latter s/he learnt that Ifor had been imprisoned as a prisoner of war at the investigation prison (68 Barenschanz? St). S/he visited Ifor there this afternoon; he looked well and in good health, had nothing to complain about except the lack of freedom. He is allowed to read, work and send letters (under surveillance). He can also have what food his means allows him. He'll also be set free upon the payment of 5000 marks (£250) surety, to be deposited in the Royal State Bank. The criminal police has suggested that the matter should be put to Ifor's parents. In the letter it is noted that Ifor has expressed doubts over whether the £250 would be kept safe.
