People who read my notes will notice that in my latest one "arrived in Paris" (about Vorob'yaninov) is a misprint. He arrived in Stargorod (where he had been marshal of the nobility before Revolution) from N., a small town not far from Stargorod, but dvornik Tikhon is sure that his former barin came directly from Paris. By the way, dvornik Tihon* = drink + vino (wine) + hot (it is very hot in Tikhon's lodge).

*Russian letter x, pronounced as kh, can be transliterated as h
