Summary Baermann writes wryly to Jahns of his ailments. He is unable to give Jahns further information about the opera Webers Bild by Taglichsbeck but intends to try and contact Täglichsbeck’s widow to ask. He declines Jahns’s apparent offer of Täglichsbeck’s autograph for his collection but says he would welcome one of Neukomm or ‘other great Berlin artists’ such as Zelter or Devrient.
