V. I.

Lenin

Dear Comrade, I am very grateful for your speedy and detailed reply.
We shall be there on February  4 . If you can, find us a room
for two , by the week , not dearer than 1 franc a day; preferably in an ordinary working-class family (with a stove;
it may still be cold).

If this is impossible, perhaps you will recommend a cheap hotel (1 franc a day, or even cheaper), where we
could stay until we found a room ourselves. We shall agree
on the date of the lecture, etc.

I hope to have a money order from you on Monday morning (keep a special account of the expenses: the express
and the like, and postal expenses generally, etc., because
we shall cover them ourselves).

Beste Grüsse , Yours, Lenin
