Ulyanova,
Kazan

We are all well.[1] I saw Gorky today and tried to persuade him to travel on your steamer, about which I sent a telegram to Nizhny, but he flatly refused. We are giving Pokrovsky leave of absence. Menzhinskaya has been provisionally appointed in his place. I received your letter from Uretsky and sent a reply back by him. Do you get the Moscow newspapers?

Lenin

Notes

[1] This telegram is in answer to the following telegram from Krupskaya: “Moscow, Comrade Lenin. July 10, 1919. Kazan. Arrived in Kazan today. Am well. Very much work. Am moving on. Are you keeping well? Ulyanova.”
