Letter to Anna Ulyanova, January 14, 1896
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1977, Moscow, Volume 37, pages 87-88.
January 14, 1896
Yesterday I received your letter of the 12th and am sending you a second letter of attorney. Actually I am not sure it is necessary; yesterday I got some of my things, which made me think my first letter giving power of attorney had been received. In any case I am sending one, in answer to your letter and Alexandra Kirillovna’s. Now I have underclothes and everything—quite enough; do not send any underclothes as there is nowhere to keep them. But they can be sent to the storeroom, so as to end the matter once and for all.
I am very thankful to A.K. for the trouble she took about the dentist; I am ashamed of having caused so much bother. The dentist does not require a special pass because the prosecutor has already given permission and I did not even write to the dentist until I had received it. The day and time he comes does not matter. I cannot guarantee that I will not be absent—under interrogation, for instance—but I think the sooner he comes the greater the chance of avoiding that obstacle, which is not likely to occur in any case. I shall not write to Mr. Dobkovich (the dentist, assistant to Vazhinsky); he lives next to my former lodgings (Gorokhovaya, 59) and perhaps you will go to him and explain matters.
Regarding my own books, I have sent a list of those I should like to get.[1] Thanks for the books by Golovin and Schippel sent yesterday. From my own books I must add only dictionaries. I am doing a translation from the German[2] and would ask you to send me Pavlovsky’s dictionary.
I was sent some underclothes, apparently not mine; they must be returned. When you are here you must ask them to bring you the underclothes and things I don’t need— and I will hand them over.
I am quite well.
V. Ulyanov
I am very glad to hear that Mother and Mark are better now.
