У меня оказалась жаба и нарыв во рту, который сейчас прорезали. Поэтому я, вероятно, ещё дня 2 или три просижу. Так как мне очень скучно, то я очень прошу, чтобы вечером меня посетили Директор (если свободен), Инспектор и гг. Профессора Кашкин, Губерт и Зверев. Очень прошу тебя попросить всех этих господ удостоить меня посещением.
{{right|Твой, П. Чайковский}}
Нельзя ли отвечать, будут ли эти господа, потому что я должен приготовить ужин.
