This is what Mr. Solovyov thought and said '''before'''; and since my main goal in this ''article'' is not at all to justify my sister from the attacks of '''her other enemies – in front of whom she has long been justified '''– but to prove to the Russian public that '''one cannot believe the accusations and stories of Solovyov himself then''' I won’t talk about it any more. I also know that the evidence in ''tricks'' – which she herself called psychological tricks – will not undermine her authority and will not harm her or her cause in the opinion of the competent people, who do not believe all her merits to be several manifestations of power – in Europe, still unknown – learned by her when living in India. Eventually, however, they will be appreciated at its true value, as Radda-Bai was appreciated by the founder of ''Russkiy Vestnik'' so highly that he found time to be with her in personal correspondence in spite of being very busy.

Here are a few lines from one letter to my sister written by Mikh[ail] Nikif[orovich] Katkov, directly indicating his attitude to her and her cause.
