Dear Comrade,

The bearer of this letter is our Party comrade.[1] I would kindly ask you to give her your advice and assistance. In particular, she has instructions to look for our Social-Democratic books and documents in Stockholm and if need be to send them on. These books, etc., are partly in the basement of the Stockholm People’s House (in crates), and partly, perhaps, with Comrades Börjeßon or Björck (Bokhandel Björck & Börjeßon, Drottninggatan. 62).

I trust that with your help the bearer of this letter will be able to carry out her assignment, which I consider extremely important.

With best regards,

N. Lenin

She had been asked to send to Lenin from Stockholm Bolshevik publications (the complete file of Iskra and is sues of Vperyod and Proletary for 1905) containing articles by Lenin needed for the third volume of the first, three-volume collection of his writings he was preparing for the press.
