Reading notes
- To Al. P. Chekhov, 25 December 1887. Moscow. §7 Polina Yakovlevna's little window
Apparently a cashier or clerk at the Oskolki office through whose ticket window contributors' fees were paid out; her "little window" (оконце) opening is Chekhov's shorthand for the office reopening after the holidays.
