<ref name="n1"> Although responding to a letter from Hauser of 20 November 1915 (CP 03030; Kolb, XIV, no. 142), the present letter cannot be from any earlier than 22 November: cf. mention of the death of Noël Bardac (see note 9 below). As Proust enclosed in the same envelope a stock market or bank document relative to the sale of 200 North Caucasian securities, it is possible that he had not posted this letter but had it delivered by hand by Céleste Albaret, she having in fact made a visit to Hauser's bank on 24 November. This letter could therefore date from 22 or 23 November 1915. Hauser, short of staff and overwhelmed by numerous subscriptions to a new loan offer, would not reply until 26 November (CP 03034; Kolb, XIV, no. 146). As for the letter from Hauser of 23 November 1915 (CP 03032; Kolb, XIV, no. 144), in which the banker announces his discovery of an unofficial market in which North Caucasian had in fact been priced at 36 francs per share, it is probable that he wrote it before he received this one (otherwise he would not have failed to confirm receipt of the broker's document); but it was not sent until several days later, joined with Hauser's reply of 26 November.

Message definition (CP 03031)
<ref name="n1"> Bien que répondant à la lettre de Hauser du 20 novembre 1915 (CP 03030 ; Kolb, XIV, n° 142), la présente lettre ne peut être antérieure au 22 novembre : mention de la mort de Noël Bardac (voir la note 9 ci-après). Proust envoyant sous ce pli un document boursier ou bancaire relatif à la vente de 200 titres de North Caucasian, il est probable qu'il n'a pas posté cette lettre mais l'aura fait porter par Céleste Albaret, cette dernière ayant en effet effectué une visite à la banque de Hauser le 24 novembre. Cette lettre peut donc dater du 22 ou du 23 novembre 2015. Hauser, privé de personnel et débordé par des souscriptions nombreuses à un nouvel emprunt, n'y répondra que le 26 novembre (CP 03034 ; Kolb, XIV, nº 146). Quant à la lettre de Hauser du 23 novembre 1915 (CP 03032 ; Kolb, XIV, n° 144), où le banquier fait part de sa découverte d'un marché non officiel où le North Caucasian avait en effet été coté à 36 francs par action, il est probable qu'il l'a écrite avant d'avoir reçu celle-ci (sans quoi il n'aurait pas manqué d'accuser réception du document du coulissier) ; mais elle n'a été envoyée que quelques jours plus tard, jointe à la réponse de Hauser du 26.

  1. ↑ Although responding to a letter from Hauser of 20 November 1915 (CP 03030; Kolb, XIV, no. 142), the present letter cannot be from any earlier than 22 November: cf. mention of the death of Noël Bardac (see note 9 below). As Proust enclosed in the same envelope a stock market or bank document relative to the sale of 200 North Caucasian securities, it is possible that he had not posted this letter but had it delivered by hand by Céleste Albaret, she having in fact made a visit to Hauser's bank on 24 November. This letter could therefore date from 22 or 23 November 1915. Hauser, short of staff and overwhelmed by numerous subscriptions to a new loan offer, would not reply to it until 26 November (CP 03034; Kolb, XIV, no. 146). As for the letter from Hauser of 23 November 1915 (CP 03032; Kolb, XIV, no. 144), in which the banker announces his discovery of an unofficial market in which North Caucasian had in fact been priced at 36 francs per share, it is probable that he wrote it before he received this one (otherwise he would not have failed to confirm receipt of the broker's document); but it was not sent until several days later, joined with Hauser's reply of 26 November.
