Dear Mr. Bumball,
In reply of your letter of 11/25/:
I do not know Nina Stauffenberg's
address. I suggest you ask
Dr. Peter Hoffman
4332 Montrose Ave
Westmount,P.QH3Y 1P4
CANADA
He has written a biography of Claus
Stauffenberg and his brothers.
Thank you for your good
wishes - which I return.
Sincerely,
Freya von Moltke
