thanks Hd86 for all your help. That n/w was a puzzler.

My next project is transcribing some my relatives 80 yr old letters written in Low german. May be a challenge as I don't know german. ???

A gentleman using the name JustinL often posts here on German texts.  He is excellent at them, to the best I am able to tell.

Unless your letters involve a young lady named Sigrid, daughter of Herr und Frau Gruber, who fahrt ihre motoroller zum Bahnhof, you won't hear from me.
