8 авг[устa]

Когда твоё торжество? 10-го или 11-го числа? Хоть убей не могу вспомнить. Если 10 отвечай депешей, а если не получу завтра 9-го числа депешу, значит 11-го.

П. Чайковский

8 August

When are your celebrations?[1] The 10th or the 11th? For the life of me I can't remember. If it's the 10th send a dispatch, and if I don't receive a dispatch tomorrow on the 9th, that means it's the 11th.

P. Tchaikovsky
