page with the monogram «PCH». In French.
«...You will forgive me, I hope, if, tired to excess by rehearsals for my opera, I can only send you these few lines in response to your
kind and friendly letter. I am deeply touched by the kindness you wish to show me, and I thank you with all my heart for all your good
wishes. As I will probably be going to Moscow in a fortnight, it is to this town that the proofs of my piece [2] should be sent. I promise
to correct and return them forthwith...»
