To Marc Favrat with a request for news concerning the termination of the rental agreement of Villa Rosalba in Cannes to avoid further debt, and the settlement of the deceased Princess Elisabeth's bill of 160.160 francs by the Crown Prince of Hohenzollern: "Vous avez alors exprimé l'intention de vouloir la dénoncer à la propriétaire le plus tôt possible. Je vous serais très reconnaissant de me faire savoir, ce que vous avez entrepris à cet effet [...]". - Elisabeth of Romania (1894-1956) settled in Cannes some years after her expulsion from Romania in 1947, when the Romanian People's Republic was proclaimed.
In France, she met the much younger would-be artist Marc Favrat, who became her lover, whom she made her equerry (or Grand Chamberlain) and adopted in the year of her death. - With printed letterhead "Hans-Joachim Oehmichen / Privatsekretär"..
