16. IX. 10
Dear Comrade,
I shall be here until September 25. On the morning of the 26th of September (Monday) I intend to be in Copenhagen and would like to spend as little time there as possible. If you think it worth arranging a public or Party lecture on the Copenhagen Congress, please arrange it for Monday (in the evening, of course, since it is a workday).[1] I could then leave on Tuesday, for it is time for me to be in Paris, and I must now make haste. Regarding the room, please find out whether I could spend the night there on the 26th. If not, I shall return the keys when and where you say (I have taken them with me). By the way, I left a book on the table (reports and the main report for the Copenhagen Congress in French, in a folder). If the former lodger occupies the room on the morning of the 26th of September I would kindly ask you to go there and pick up the book so that I could get it from you.
My address: Herrn Wl. Ulianoff. Adr. Frk. W. Berg. 17. I. Kaptensgatan. 17. I. Stockholm. Drop me a line when you find out and decide about the lecture.
With best regards,
Yours,
Lenin
