House only," in which I said that in handing me the statement which I have just read, Tchitcherin and Litvinov had explained that the Executive Council of the Soviet Government had formally considered and adopted it, and that the Soviet Government considered itself absolutely bound to accept the proposals made therein, provided they were made on or before April 10, and under no conditions would they change their minds.
Buckler there conferred with Litvinov, who made various propositions and representations to him which Mr. Buckler at once telegraphed back to Paris, and which were considered so important by the President that the President read them in extenso to the council of ten on the morning of January 21. I regret that I have no actual copy of those proposals by Litvinov, or of Buckler's telegrams.
He fell on his knees before her, kissing the hem of her dress. The tears started into her eyes. She was frightened, but her whole face beamed with delight. "Tatyana," Litvinov cried, "Tatyana, you have forgiven me? Tatyana!" "Aunt, aunt, what is this?" cried Tatyana, turning to Kapitolina Markovna as she came in.
Litvinov called frequently at the house, and fell desperately in love with the eldest daughter, Irina. Irina was only seventeen, and as beautiful as the dawn.

According to Litvinov, who is certainly not an unfriendly authority, as soon as Lenine arrived in Russia he submitted a new program to his party which was so novel, and so far a departure from accepted Socialist principles, that "Lenine's own closest friends shrank from it and refused to accept it."
Litvinov introduced me to him, very tactfully telling him of Lockhart's attack upon me, whereupon he became quite decently friendly, and said that if I could stay a few days in Petrograd on my way back from Moscow he would see that I had access to the historical material I wanted, about the doings of the Petrograd Soviet during the time I had been away.
At first Irina resolutely refused to go, and Litvinov was called in by the prince to use his persuasion. "Very well, then, I will go," she said, when she had listened to his arguments; "only remember, it is you yourself who desired it." She spoke so strangely that he feared he had offended her. "Irina, darling, you seem to be angry." Irina laughed. "Oh, no! I am not angry.
