Comrade Krestinsky!

As for the dog, I’ve abandoned that idea. My nerves are no longer what they used to be, and I simply won’t be able to go hunting anymore. If you haven’t already caught up with me, I ask that you leave me alone and put an end to all these troubles. But if you have indeed caught up with me, I’ll likely give the dog to another hunter.

All the best!

Yours, Lenin.

2/III 1922.
