Good heavens! If I had thought that you were writing to your brother Leonid, who loved us all, I would have asked you to pass along my best regards and memories. This time, I ask you—next time you write to him—to do so. My poor memory made me forget to tell you before you had already left, just as I forgot to ask you to warmly congratulate Mme de G., who holds you in great affection.
