EINSTEIN, Albert. Autograph letter signed ('Albert') to his first wife, Mileva Einstein-Maric, n.p., 13 February 1926, one page, 4° (one line cancelled but legible). FURTHER DEROGATORY REMARKS ABOUT HANS ALBERT'S FUTURE WIFE. Einstein proposes that his son should come and stay with him in Ludwigshafen, were he is to lecture. He had been thinking of visiting Mileva and the children in Zurich, but he doesn't have enough time, and 'besides there is always such a big fuss [ Trara ] when I come, and I have to make sure no one is offended'. If Hans Albert comes, he will be able to pursue his engineering interests. Einstein writes with pleasure of a letter from his younger son, Eduard ('Tete'), but adds: 'There's no danger of me sending him something of mine to read - he's such a fierce critic that one gets frightened'. Einstein ends by defending himself from Mileva's reproaches over his treatment of Hans Albert, and over his financial contributions: 'If you had let Albert go to Munich, he would have gained a greater knowledge of the female sex, and would not have fallen into the clutches of an elderly, sly virgin [ cancelled, but legible ]. If only he weren't obliged to have any wretched children. But she will take care of that!'.
