To:   HIS SISTER MARIA

Maria Ilyinichna Ulyanova, Samarin’s House, Apt. 3, Moskovskaya Street, Vologda, Russia

December 21

Dear Manyasha, Under separate cover I am sending you some German
book catalogues. Look them over and drop me a line to say if there is anything that interests you (when you have
finished with them—there is no hurry—return them).

How are you and Mother getting on? Do you intend to see Mark or Anya during the holidays? Have you heard
anything from Mitya?

Everything is still the same here; I have already got thoroughly used to the Krakow way of life—narrow, quiet,
sleepy, but in some respects more convenient than life in
Paris.

Forgive me for not writing often, business interferes.

Give Mother many kisses for me. Nadya and Y.V. also send regards and kisses.

Yours,

V. U.
