30 сент[ября]

Я забыл вчера сказать тебе следующее. По какому-то совершенно особенному стечению обстоятельств я получу деньги не 1-го октября, как рассчитывал, а около 10-го. Ради Бога извини, что поневоле обманул тебя. Как получу, сейчас же приеду в Москву.

Твой П. Чайковский

30 September

I forgot yesterday to tell you the following. Due to an utterly unforeseen turn of events, I won't be receiving the money on 1st October, as I'd counted on, but around the 10th. For God's sake forgive me for involuntarily misleading you. As soon as I receive it I'll come to Moscow at once.

Yours P. Tchaikovsky
