TO THE WORKERS OF THE FORMER MIKHELSON FACTORY
November 7, 1922
Dear Comrades! I deeply regret that a minor ailment has compelled me to stay at home precisely today. I send you
my warmest greetings and best wishes on the occasion of your five-year anniversary.
For the next five-year plan, I wish you continued success in your work.
Yours, V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
