Dear N. A.,

We must meet as soon as possible to talk about the speediest convocation of a meeting of Bolsheviks (anti-Vperyodists). Yesterday Mark+Lozovsky+Lyova departed with a protest against a factional newspaper.[2] The funny fellows! I am glad that the muddlers are out of it, but we must speedily ascertain the attitude of the remaining people. If possible come out as quickly as you can and take steps for an early meeting.

Yours,
Lenin
