Провёл около недели у себя, имея о Губерте ежедневные скверные известия. Сейчас получил от от А[лександры] Ив[ановны] Губ[ерт] телеграмму: «''часы сочтены''». Еду в Москву и останусь пока все не кончится. Очень мне будет тяжко все это. | |||
Очень много работал; «''Гамлет''» почти совсем готов. 25-го ездил в Спасское к фон-Визиным. За Щаповым удивительно красивая местность, и Спасское мне страшно по нравилось.

27 September I've spent around a week at home, having had bad news every day about Hubert [1]. I've just received a telegram from Aleksandra Ivanovna Hubert: "hours are numbered". I am going to Moscow and will stay until everything is over. This will all be very difficult for me. I've been working a lot; "Hamlet" is almost completely ready. On 25th I went to Spasskoye for von Wiesen [2]. After Shchapov the terrain is surprisingly beautiful, and I liked Spasskoye terribly. I'm all set for winter and it's turned out to be pleasantly warm. I hope that all is fine with you. I kiss you, Kolya, Bob. P. Tchaikovsky |

- ↑ Tchaikovsky was attending the name-day celebrations of Aleksandr Pavlovna von Wiesen (Fonvizina; b. 1863), the daughter of his first cousin, Aleksandra Kartsova, whose family estate was at Spasskoye.
