The letter:
Stavka 8 August 1916
My dear, sweet, darling, beloved Mama.
It has been raining since morning. I have just had a mud bath. Yesterday we went boating on the Dnepr. It was very hot. Papa and the cadets went for a swim! In the evening we stuffed our faces in our little garden. The boys thank you and Tatiana very much for your greetings and kisses. I am waiting for Zhilik to come. I'll finish off now and continue in my next letter. May God protect you and the sisters +!
Kisses
Alexei
