Милый друг! Я и забыл тебя попросить об одной вещи. Скажи, пожалуйста, ''Черемисинову'', чтобы он имел любезность удержать для меня по 15 (по возможности не дороже 10 р[ублей] на 1-ый и 6 на второй) билетов на оба концерта. Я все деньги внесу по приезде сам. Меня со всех сторон просят, и отказывать очень неловко. | |||

Dear friend! I forgot to ask you about one more thing. Please tell ''Cheremisinov'' <ref name="note1"/> to do me the courtesy of reserving me 15 tickets for both concerts (provided they're no more than 10 rubles for the 1st and 6 for the second) <ref name="note2"/>. I'l bring all the money with me. I have requests from all quarters, and it's awkward to refuse. | |||
