Scope and content
[Disputes between Andersen and Bock] Bock to Andersen. Bock had previously threatened Andersen that he would force access to Bock's house with the help of the army of the neighbouring station (Boma) because Bock had not opened the door for him. Bock says if Andersen had announced his coming, someone would have been home to open the door for Andersen. Your kind letter should have been rather unwritten. Don't you soon want to stop hanging accusations on my neck that are solely the product of your brain turning facts upside down? What do you write about the forced opening of our doors by the boma? Are you still in your right mind? On Friday morning I received a message from the Boma to be ready at any moment to take charge of the post and bring my wife with me if she does not move to Kigoma. A copy of the order for appointment issued to you was sent with the request to approve Mr Andersen's dismissal from his basic work and to confirm it by signature. And in the accompanying letter the lieutenant expressed his regret to have to tear you out of the middle of the basic work, as we lose a lot as a result. How did you come to deliberately falsify the Tasachen? The image of your personality is getting darker for me.' 'Our house was and still is open to your family.' A reference to the many times Bocks have helped the Andersen family.
