Note 1 — FIRST PART. LIFE'S JOYS AND SORROWS. 1783 TO 1815.
Grace Wallace translation
[Footnote 1: Ries names 1801 as the date of this letter, and it was no doubt during that summer that Count Browne was in Baden. Ries's father had assisted the Beethoven family in every way in his power at the time of the mother's death.]
