August 12, 1918

Bosch, Gubernia Executive Committee, Penza

Your telegram received. Extremely surprised at the absence of information on the course and outcome of the suppression of the kulak rising in the five volosts. I do not want to think that you have displayed tardiness or weakness in crushing it, and in the model confiscation of all property, particularly grain, of the rebel kulaks.

Lenin
Chairman, Council of People’s Commissars
