Handwritten letter Marika Zalichi (Cavafy's second cousin) to the poet in the first three pages of a bifolio. The last page is blank. The sender refers to the stay in Istanbul of the poet's brother, John, as well as to the wedding of Eleni Fotiadi (daughter of the demoticist physician Fotis Fotiadis) to Alexandros Pappas on Prinkipo (23-7/5-8-1906). She encloses the printed four-page invitation to the wedding and uses its envelope for her own letter as well. (Prinkipo)
