Medvedeva
also: Медведева
An actress weighed against Sadovskaya for the role of Raisa in Suvorin's "Tatyana Repina" (already a live question in's headnote); this letter (§10) resolves the competition in her favor, with Chekhov relaying the stated reason that she is "a master" at playing Jewish women ("жидовок"), unlike Sadovskaya.
