Прости. Писать решительно невозможно было! Из газет ты знаешь, вероятно, что все здесь было благополучно. Сейчас еду в Прагу. 6-го декабря буду в Москве; напиши мне туда. Если приедешь в январе, то, наверно, увидимся! Чувствую себя очень хорошо. Вчера в Муз[ыкальнам] общ[естве] меня принимали восторженно.

Засим сию минуту приходится уезжать. Целую, обнимаю!

До свиданья!
