Comrade Vyacheslav Alexandrovich Kugushev
Ufa
Comrade Kugushev, I have a favour to ask of you. Lydia Alexandrovna
Fotieva, whom I have known well since before 1905 and with
whom I have been working for a long time in the C.P.C.,
is travelling to Ufa.

L. A. Fotieva is quite ill and it is our business to repair
this “state property” (C.P.C. secretary). Will you please
take all steps to help L. A. Fotieva get fixed up, have
medical treatment, and be fed to bursting point .

Comrade A. D. Tsyurupa has told me that you know
L. A. Fotieva and will not refuse to help her.

I thank you in advance; please drop me a line by messenger (military, for example) that you have received this
letter.

With comradely greetings,
V. Ulyanov (Lenin )
