1/X. 1918
Dear Vladimir Dmitrievich,
Only this morning I heard the awful news. I cannot travel to Moscow, but I should like, if only in a letter, to grip your hand hard, very hard, to express my love and the love of all of us for Vera Mikhailovna, and to give you at least a little support, insofar as anyone can do so, in your terrible grief. Take good care of your daughter’s health. Once more, a strong, firm handshake.
Yours,
V. Lenin
