a letter from Mr.Fukui

Dear Deguchi-san

I duty received "Zoku-Ekimae Fudousannya Funtouki",latest publication of your writing for which I would like to give my sincerest thankfulness to you.
Please excuse me for being late in acknowledging the receipt of the above-mentioned book due to my father having died a month ago.
As you can easily imagine,there have been tremendously numerous things I had to organize.
it is even so when my mother is senile.
I am however putting myself back to normal life.
I might take some time,though.
