This seems to have been mailed from Konstanz in 1915. The markings are indistinct, but I would like to know what they say, especially the censor's mark. Can you help?

The second line in the censor's box appears to be Überwachungsstelle, i.e. "supervisory department." I still can't read the last line.

The last line is supposed to say which army corps the censor department belonged to, but the number is illegible.
