Dear Friend,

I have just received two packets for you—those that were taken out of your basket. They are poorly wrapped, only in newspaper.

And we have not received a single packet so far!

Everything is still seething here, although the hue and cry seems to be beginning to subside.

Do you see all the local newspapers?

Please drop a couple of lines about the receipt of this letter—best of all to the secretary of our newspaper (on the envelope: personal for V. I.). Better not write to any other address. As for the packets, perhaps it would be best if someone coming from there brought them for you.

How did Olminsky receive you? How do you like Moscow?

Best greetings!

Yours, V. U.
