Dear Comrade Hammer!
Excuse me please; I have been very ill; now I am much, much better.
Many thanks for Your present—a very kind letter from American comrades and friends who are in prison. I enclose for You my letter to Comrade Zinoviev or for other comrades in Petrograd if Zinoviev has left Petrograd.
My best wishes for the full success of Your first concession: such success would be of great importance also for trade relations between our Republic & United States.
Thanking You once more. I beg to apologise for my bad English. Please address letters & telegrams to my secretary (Fotieva or Smolianinoff). I shall instruct them.[1]
Yours truly,
Lenin
