Каменка. 24 ав[густа] Милый Карлуша! Окажи твою протекцию подателю сего письма, священнику Тарнавичу, привёзшему дочь для помещения в Консерваторию. Я бы желал, чтобы девочку приняли в комплект, а если этого нельзя, то я беру на себя половину платы. Жить она будет у С. А. Бернард. Крепко тебя обнимаю, а также всех твоих. Твой П. Чайковский |
