V. I. LENIN — TO M. K. KOBETSKY
IN COPENHAGEN
[Between August 8 and 26, 1910. Poronin.]¹

Dear Comrade,
Many thanks for the information and for your kind offer of assistance. If it is not too much trouble, please rent me a simple, cheap, small room from the 26th.
I shall be in Copenhagen by the morning of the 26th (Bureau meeting). I shall try to call on you in the morning (I don’t know when the train arrives: I shall probably go via Hamburg-Korsør). If you are not at home, leave a letter for me with the landlady (für Herrn Ulianoff). I need the room by the week or by the month—depending on what is more usual in Copenhagen.
I shall be in Copenhagen about ten days from August 26, then I may go away for a week on a personal matter,² and afterwards return to Copenhagen. Therefore a cheap room by the month (if you pay 12 crowns* for a long stay, I shall probably have to pay 15–18 crowns for a similar room) would be more convenient for me. If you are busy, don’t bother; I shall manage to find one myself on August 26–27, as the Bureau meeting will take only one morning.
With a handshake,
Yours, Lenin
