Olga signs herself Skadowsky Picard. Olga is very concerned about her son Leon and the serious consequences of his burns sustained in the war. She fears that Anna is hiding the truth from her. She encloses a letter for Leon and asks Anna to send it on. She has not heard from Leon although she has been writing to him poste restante, rue du Louvre. She is well and all are well at Cherson and Moscow although aging and becoming weaker. Waria has absolutely nothing but Olga earns enough to help her and has sent tea, coffee, sugar, matches and olive oil which should last out until the spring. Olga appreciates the generous help the Brodskys have given to Leon. Olga finds no time to read but she can enjoy the stars, moon, sun, sky and treetops from her bedroom window. Olga asks for her brother's address. In French, and is dated 22 Oct/4 Nov 1919.
