Letter from Nikola Karev to Gotse Delchev

1902

Dear G(otze)

... In Krushevo and Bitola the night blocades appear almost every day, and a lot of affairs throw people in jail. We shouldn't wait anymore, Gotse. It is time for us to stand up and fight. We shouldn't wait for freedom from the Greeks, neither from the Bulgarians, but we Macedonians should fight for our Macedonia, ... As I am concerned, nobody can take away my courage and my patriotism. I am proud to report to you, that all our men are prepared to fight, with guns in their hands.
