RUSSIA. Tatiana NIKOLAIEVNA (1897-1918)
Grand Duchess of Russia, daughter of Nicholas II.
L.A.S. "Tatiana", Tobolsk March 1, 1918, to Zénaïde Sergïévna TOLSTOI, née Bekhteeff (1880-1961)| 3 1/2 pages in-8| in Russian.
Rare letter during the imperial family's captivity in Tobolsk, before their transfer to Yekaterinburg, and their assassination on July 17.
Translation: "My dear Zinotchka, thank you very much for your letter to both of us, from the beginning of January. I don't know why it took so long. Be so good and ask R. to send this letter to Katia Kulneva and this postcard, would you please mail it. I think that way it will reach her more surely. It's about a cadet who sent Dad a postcard. We don't know him, but he said Dad spoke to him on a military parade. How touching. Lili [Lili Dehn, friend of the Tsarina] has finally written to us from the countryside. She says she has received our letters sent by you and asks to write to her through you. [...] I hope all is peaceful again in your city. [...] Ask R. if she knows anything about my Ulyanov and his family. I don't know anything about them. Are they alive? Their property must be occupied by the Romanians, since it's in Bessarabia, not far from Kishinev? Rita will explain this correct but strange word to the uninitiated. Write to me again. I love receiving your letters. Do you know where N.N. is at the moment? I know that his friend was killed in Simferopol and that he was there too"...
