Dear brother!
I have some time to write to you and tell you that I am thank God well. I am worried that you are not writing back for three months now. I received your last letter, which you wrote on sixth of February and I wrote back immediately, but no answer from you. Josip wrote to me that you are not writing to him also if you forgot your brothers don’t forget your mother she is worried about us and she will not forget us until she dies and while she is alive luck will follow us.
Dear brother nothing else is new you asked me in last letter when I will retire I cannot tell you that as I don’t know it yet. Now it is longer you have to work for 30 years before you can retire. Please write back as soon as you receive my letter. Now say hi to Nikola and everybody else I know.
Nothing else then receive a brotherly greeting, love your brother Mato
Please provide corrections as needed....
