verstand es in einer Weise -- help with German sentence


Recommended Posts

The German sentence below was written in 1950.

I don't know if I've understood the red German phrase below and translated it properly into English. Thank you very much for any assistance.

Smith understood how to so enter into the thoughts and feelings of every individual person, into the person's particular life situation or life tasks, that a genuine human trust always quickly developed.
