To Nicolas Hausmann letter 24 - Martin Luther

TO NICOLAS HAUSMANN November 20, 1531.

Grace and peace, dearest friend! The other day I again wrote begging you to come to me, but as you have not replied I fear you have not got the letter. Therefore I once more plead with you to come at once. An empty room is waiting for you. Have no hesitation in coming, for you will be a comfort to me, and would to God you could spend your whole life with me. It would be easy to entertain you, and a good opportunity of refusing those ungrateful people their request, which otherwise could not be denied them. This Pastor Buchholz will tell you what I mean; but come speedily.

Do not trouble about money.

Farewell in Christ. MARTIN LUTHER . (Walch, 5:21. 1399.)
