[Not earlier than April 25, 1919]

Telegram

The meeting of poor peasants of the village of Kasyonok, Mikulinsk Volost, Orsha Uyezd, to its great distress, [having learned] of the unknown reason for the recall of the chairman of the local branch, Comrade Bandeko, and members of the Party, as defenders of Soviet power of the proletariat in the localities, the meeting of poor peasants addresses a comradely request [to] the world leader of the proletariat to investigate the reasons for the dissolution of the Party branch, and to publish the result in the *Central Izvestia*. We are firmly confident that our tearful request will not remain without your consideration. With comradely greetings. The Poor Peasants.

To Stasova 1 in the Organising Bureau of the CC.

1 Ye. D. Stasova—member of the Party since 1898. From February 1917 to March 1920—Secretary of the CC, RCP(b).
