The entire Strakhov-Tolstoy correspondence, edited by Andrew Donskov, 
was published in 2003 by the Slavic Research Group at the University of 
Ottawa, associated with the Tolstoy Museum in Moscow, in two volumes. 
The letter you are referring to is T to S, 5-7 February 1881. Another 
famous letter is S to T 28 November 1883, in which S accuses the late 
Dostoevsky of "grex Stavrogina," pedophilia.
> Hi All,
> I am looking for a letter which Tolstoy wrote to N. N. Strakhov after Dostoevsky's death. In the memoirs of Anna Dostoevskaya, she mentions that he wrote such a letter and Strakhov passed it on to her, which she liked a lot and kept it. Has that letter been published? If yes, where can I find it? It would be easier if it is available on the internet otherwise can you please let me know in which of Tolstoy's volumes of collected works the letter has been published.
> I'll be immensely grateful for any help.
