Doporior*1 Leona[r]d.

 

I enclose the proofs received this morning; I made only a very <few>corrections but left ta*2 questions in the marked proofs untouched. You will probably go through them, as they need correcting. -

 

I shall be able to send you by the end of the week several thousand words of the Goldenvaiser Diary.  If you like it  (and I think that a very interesting book could be made of it - perhaps by condensing it to half its, Russian, size), and you also like the Rosanov book,- then perhaps Virginia*3 would like to do with me the Rosanov book, and you - the Goldenvaiser? Do that in about five or six weeks we could have both books ready for the press.

 

Yours | SSK*4[signature]
