16 JULY 1881, SOKOL’NIKI.

Today is just as hot. Yesterday I went with Papa into Moscow and heard about the sovereign’s arrival. [Mikhail] Katkov, whom Papa drove from Dolgorukov’s to his apartment, seemingly wants to advise him to be crowned here.49 The audience at the palace will be either on Friday or on Saturday. They say that the sovereign and his wife, the heir, and perhaps Vladimir Aleksandrovich50 are coming. I bought Mishka the works of [Nikolai] Gogol for his birthday; as a present to him from Lidiia Stepanovna I bought him Count Leo Tolstoy’s Military Stories.51 In the city I saw Roman. Lev has still not sent Aunt a telegram from Kiev about her brother.
