Dear L. B.,

I am writing at the meeting. It’s going wonderfully. It will be no less significant than the 1912 January Conference. There will be resolutions on_all_ important issues, unity included.

We are all terribly sorry you are not here and have not been able to come.

I am sending the 1st resolution. For the time being keep it a secret; only get the backing ...[1]some of the Bolsheviks, who can hold their tongues.

A happy New Year,
Yours,
Lenin

All the resolutions are being adopted unanimously....

Gigantic success!

We shall be through in 2–3 days.
