Dear Friend! Today I received from Karpinsky my 1st letter, which you, evidently, managed to forward to him. Thank you.

There is no second letter. But you did receive it?? Where is it?
I shall send you my 3rd and 4th letters to *Pravda* tomorrow, Wednesday. After reading them and showing them to
Usiyevich, please send them on to the Karpinskys. Today I have a lecture here 469.

I am interested to know what you will say about letter No. 3—for our talks.

I firmly, firmly press your hand. Yours, Lenin

** “The Victory of the Cadets and the Tasks of the Workers’ Party” was published as a separate pamphlet in April 1906 (see *Collected Works*, 5th ed., Vol. 12, pp. 271–352). “Report on the Unity Congress of the R.S.D.L.P.” was published as a separate pamphlet in June 1906 (Vol. 13, pp. 1–66). *Ed.*

P.S. I thought you would let me know by postcard about the dispatch of the letter to Karpinsky, and
yesterday I wrote to Usiyevich, having decided that you had left.
