Kedrova’s House,
Podolsk,
Moscow Gubernia

April 30, 1900

I have received your letter and Manya’s of the 25th, Mother dearest. I shall probably get away from here earlier, in something like a fortnight from now, but I cannot say anything at all definite.

I think I wrote telling you I had asked permission to spend six weeks in Ufa.[2] I hope to receive an answer soon.

Nadya writes that her health is improving. She has not received Archiv from Anyuta. Here is something I should like to ask Anyuta to do—can she get back that “Archiv” before I arrive and not send it to Nadya, because I now need it (I could take it to Nadya myself) and the second copy that I expected never reached me. I should very much like to have it when I visit you.

Ask Manyasha to send me Nadya’s translation.[1] I will send it to the journal.

Filippov writes that even from the article against Skvortsov the censor has thrown out almost a third! That is really too bad!

Many kisses for you and regards to all.

Yours,
V. U.
