Пожалуйста, голубчик, напиши Корейво, чтобы он, по примеру прошлого года, выплачивал студенту В. Котеку 25 р[ублей] сер[ебром] каждый месяц от 1-го сентября до 1-го мая. Теперь ему следует выдать 50 р[ублей] за сентябрь и октябрь, а потом по 25 каждое первое число. Пожалуйста, сделай это сейчас, ибо там, т. е. в Киеве, теперь уже не один, а 2 студента, братья Котека, и оба страшно бедствуют.
Твой, П. Чайковский |
Please, golubchik, write to Koreyvo [1], in order that he, following last year's example, should disburse 25 silver rubles each month from 1st September to 1st May to the student V. Kotek. He should issue 50 rubles now for September and October, and subsequently 25 on the first of each month. Please do this immediately, because there are now not one but 2 student Kotek brothers there, i.e. in Kiev, and both are in terrible poverty [2].
Yours, P. Tchaikovsky |
