Still going! Still clearing Fritz's valet/chamberlain Fredersdorf's name from the calumny enshrined in wikipedia that he was dismissed for financial irregularities!

your true heart.

Awww, I like it! <3 I was going to suggest "sincere warmth", but "true heart" is great.

Clearly FS isn't the only salmon lover of the era. :)

Well, you know, people often gift other people things they themselves like, so it's entirely possible Fritz sent FS one of his *own* favorite foods.

Since Leining considers the salmon worth mentioning twice, I'm guessing Fredersdorf might have given the Bremen guy the hint/request/order to send it?

Ooh, you might be right! Okay, we fanfic writers can add that to "cherries" for Fritzian foods to include. :)
