To:   HIS SISTER ANNA

Anna Ilyinichna Yelizarova, Boldyrev’s House, Apt. 30, Obolensky Street, 5/7, Khamovniki, Moscow, Russia

March 2, 1909

Dear Anyuta, Your letter and Mitya’s have reached me here—many
thanks for them. I wrote to you from Paris that the last
proofs were excellent. If Mother is better and you are not
too tired I shall not, of course, insist that you pass on the
proofs to someone else. But are you not too worn out? I
was glad to learn from Mitya’s letter that Mother is better!
At last—she must have had a rough time. Please send proofs as before, not only the page proofs, but the galley
proofs as well (it does not matter if I correct them an
extra time; the fewer mistakes the better). Please send the
printed signatures at once to Paris, too.

I am taking a holiday in Nice. The place is wonderful— sunny, warm, dry and a southern sea. I am returning to
Paris in a few days.

I embrace Mother fondly and send best regards to all.

Yours,

V. U.
