Вербовка 3 авг[уста] Милый друг!
Я поручил Николаю Львовичу устраивать квартиру. Если ему нужны будут деньги, то он будет обращаться к тебе, и все, что ты ему выдашь, я тебе возвращу по приезде. Впрочем, это будут все маленькие суммы. Твой, П. Чайковский Пожалуйста, насчёт вальса-скерцо распорядись. |
