Quiet has been restored in Teheran [the town?] and district of Murmansk even more than usual when occupied by foreign troops. Encouraging advances are being made in the front where the morale is said to be above criticism. I have been reliably informed similar conditions prevail at Archangel. Supplies on hand here are considered sufficient for three or four months. This consulate will be closed November 15th and I will proceed to the United States on duty. Please notify my mother.
