Description
Dubaut tells the latest news and mentions a lot of Lipchitz's friends: Picasso (who 'is always in Paris'), Lurcat, Dr.Wolfson, 'Boris', 'Pignon', 'Pierre' [Dalsace?] and Jeanne Bucher. This letter was sent to Lipchitz not by formal ways, monitored by the censors, so the sender does not hide the fact of 'the torment present'. Dubaut informs Lipchitz that his 'twenty drawings' were published. He also instructs Lipchitz, how to answer him uncensored: to place in two envelopes, and the external one to address to Mr.Martinat in Vorney (Char.) with two stamps.
