TELEGRAM TO HIS WIFE

Ulyanova, Kazan

We are all well. [1] I saw Gorky today and tried to persuade him to travel on your steamer, about which I sent
a telegram to Nizhny, but he flatly refused. We are giving
Pokrovsky leave of absence. Menzhinskaya has been provisionally appointed in his place. I received your letter
from Uretsky and sent a reply back by him. Do you get the Moscow newspapers?
