Comrade Semashko
Nikolai Alexandrovich:
I now have with me Comrade Ivan Afanasyevich Chekunov, a very interesting toiling peasant, who is propagating communist principles in his own way.[1]
He has lost his spectacles and paid 15,000 rubles for the trash! Could you help him to get good spectacles?
I earnestly request you to help and ask your secretary to let me know whether you have managed to do so.
Yours,
Lenin
- â After his talk with I. A. Chekunov, Lenin made the following inscription opposite Chekunovâs name in the margin of the visitorsâ register: âThis old man has a good head, but is not in the Party because of his religious convictionsâ (Ogonyok No. 29, July 15, 1962).
