Mother dearest,
We were all extremely glad to receive your telegram and later your postcard. Did you continue your journey comfortably? Wasn’t it too tiring? Please drop me a couple of lines about this when you have rested and have settled down a bit.
Anyuta’s photographs (the ones she sent, I mean) arrived in good time and in good condition.[1]
There have been no changes here. We are all well. The weather here is surprisingly fine for autumn—it must be compensation for a bad summer. Nadya and I have often been out locally in search of “real countryside” and have found it.
I embrace you fondly, my dear, and send my very best regards to Manyasha and Anya.
Yours,
V. U.
[1] This refers to photographs of Lenin’s elder brother, Alexander Ulyanov, that his sister Anna sent him; she was afraid to carry them across the frontier because of the possibility of being arrested.
