Wien 9ten<\/sup> Mai<\/em>[1]<\/a>[a]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heute gehe ich endlich weg,[b]<\/a> und will Ihnen in der Eile Folgendes noch sagen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1o<\/sup> Widerhohle ich an Sie den Wunsch, da\u00df Sie dem Schwiegersohn des Kiss,[c]<\/a> Tilgen, \u2013 in meinem Namen<\/em>,1<\/sup> in seiner Anstellung dienlich se\u04f1n sollen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kiss wird Ihnen \u00fcbrigens eine kleine Schrift einh\u00e4ndigen, die deutlicher spricht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2o<\/sup> Soll Zimmermann[d]<\/a> zu Ende des Monat bezahlt werden. Er wird die Rechnungen des Wiener Hauses besorgen. Setzen Sie ihn also in Rapport mit Franz Thibolt,[e]<\/a> da\u00df Sie weiter keine Plage haben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3o<\/sup> Ist Ferdinand Zichy[f]<\/a> dem Anton Bathi\u00e1nyi[g]<\/a> 2000 fl[2]<\/a> W. W.[3]<\/a> schuldig. Diese Schuld \u00fcbernahmen wir auch. Nun findet sich, da\u00df Zichy dem Bathianyi versprach, ihm diese Summe im 1 Februar zu zahlen. Sein Gesch\u00e4ftsmann Bombardirt mich seit 14 Tagen, und dr\u00fcckte mir endlich in einer schwachen Stunde das Versprechen aus, ihm diese Summe den 15 Juny in Wien \u201eFederlhof\u201c. (Seinen Namen habe ich vergessen) erlegen zu lassen. Sorgen Sie daf\u00fcr, wenn es m\u00f6glich ist<\/em>.1<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gr.[4]<\/a> Wolkenstein[h]<\/a> hat den Rest seiner Schuld mit Tokayer bezahlt. Finden Sie seinen Schuldschein, so zerreissen Sie ihn \u2014 oder schicken Sie ihn zur\u00fcck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ich habe heute Cardenio[i]<\/a> um 600 # verkauft. Das Geld wird dieser Tage dem Arnstein[j]<\/a> erlegt, der es \u00e1 Conto beh\u00e4lt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thibolt soll diese Summe in Empfang nehmen, und auf mich erogiren. Sie haben sie \u00fcbrigens in keinem Speratif[k]<\/a> zu nehmen, denn es ist wahrscheinlich, da\u00df ich um das Geld ein paar andre Pferde kaufen werde; sollte ich auf 14 Tage nach England gehen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ich hoffe, da\u00df ich vor 2 Monaten kein Geld erheben werde \u2014 folglich unsere erste Zahlung erst dem 10 Sept. fiele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today he is finally leaving. Zimmermann must be paid by the end of the month. Ferdinand Zichy owes Antal Batthy\u00e1ny 200 forints, he will take that over. Walkenstein settled his debt with Tokaj wine. He sold a horse for 600 #, the amount is to go to Tibolth, but not to be included in the books, because he may buy a horse with it, he should go to England for two weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2284,2285,3388],"tags":[3544,3417],"language":[3416],"addressee":[3419],"place_of_writing":[3397],"qualification":[3769],"place_of_keeping":[4937],"place_of_publication":[2292],"class_list":["post-14689","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-munkatarsak-en","category-lunkanyi_janos-en-munkatarsak-en","category-gazda-en","tag-money","tag-travel","language-german","addressee-janos-liebenberg","place_of_writing-vienna","qualification-copy","place_of_keeping-mta-kik-kt-ms-4229-336-en","place_of_publication-319-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14689","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14689"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14689\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14692,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14689\/revisions\/14692"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14689"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/language?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"addressee","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/addressee?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"place_of_writing","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/place_of_writing?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"qualification","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/qualification?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"place_of_keeping","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/place_of_keeping?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"place_of_publication","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/szechenyilevelezes.abtk.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/place_of_publication?post=14689"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
