Nice to know
Between 1817 and 1818 Nannette Streicher helped Beethoven run his household (in particular engaging personnel). In this letter Beethoven announces his arrival the next day; it obviously concerns employing a housekeeper. He is worried about the monthly costs which will arise if he engages a servant.
