Анатоша и Паня!

Не хотите ли в субботу выехать с почтовым, проночевать и остаться все воскресенье?? Оказывается, что ночевать можно, только простынь и подушек привезите. Если Губерты приедут, и им можно ночевать. Толя, сходи переговори с ними, и, решивши, отвечайте мне обстоятельно, когда приедете. Если захватите Маню, буду ужасно рад.

Целую крепко,

П. Чайковский

26 February

Wouldn't you like to leave on Saturday with the post train, spend the night, and stay all of Sunday? If it turns out that you can spend the night, just bring a sheet and pillows. If the Huberts come, they can spend the night too. Tolya, go to speak with them and, when it's decided, reply to me with the details of when you'll be arriving. If you can collar Manya, I'll be awfully glad.

I kiss you hard.

P. Tchaikovsky
