The illegal print shop in Kursk. I base the party of the Socialist Revolutionaries in Kursk in 1903

Revolutionary and information activities of political parties in Russia have increased significantly in 1900-1907.

I was a student of Mathematics Department of  St. Petersburg Imperial University in this period.  I was a student of   Kiev’s  Imperial University of St. Vladimir in 1898-1900 too.

Visiting  of the University was not necessary for students.  We have established the timetable of visiting our classes  ourselves. The students  could not visit there university  over the years.  I had not practical classes on my Department  of  Mathematics in St. Petersburg.

I was in Kursk every summer during  the vacation time and sometimes in the winter too.

I tried to do revolutionary work  during  the  vacation time    in my homeland in Kursk.

There was not  large-scale industry  in Kursk in that period and  there were only certain groups of workers.  Our work was  primarily for revolutionizing  of the peasant masses.

I found  a hectograph and started  the  printing of  the proclamations.

I putted up printed  proclamations throughout the city on the houses and fences myself.

I  sent out some of the  printed proclamations  to the factories and villages. 

I printed the proclamations without changing my  handwriting. I ordered a special big round seal  for greater credibility. It was  engraved on this seal:

 “"Everybody can  find  there rights in the struggle . The Kursk Regional  Committee of the Party of Socialist-Revolutionaries”.

Although the entire committee and the entire party in Kursk consisted of a single person, myself!

The interrogation in the court after my jail in the Kiev’s Lukyanivska prison after participation in the Congress of the Russian Socialist and Revolutionaries. Mrs. Yulia Tymoshenko is the most famous prisoner in Lukyanivska prison now.

 I was arrested in Kiev on  04   December 4, 1905. I was arrested at the Congress of the Russian Socialist Revolutionaries party.

All Russian Revolutionaries were very encouraged  and feel them more free after the Imperial Manifesto of October 17.

The  armed insurrection began at this time in Moscow.

There were only three political prisoners at the time of our arrest in the Kiev’s  Lukyanovskaya prison.

There were only three political prisoners at the time of our arrest in the Kiev’s  Lukyanovskaya prison. The prison was overcrowded after our arrests. We organized a boycott of the prison’s Chief Mr. Malitsky for  his abuse of prisoners.

After his appearance in any of the prison cells we began to shout “You are the murderer and  executioner! Get out!”.

In memory of my brother Sasha a teacher of Zemstvo school, a member of Narodnaya Volya party and revolutionary terrorist Pages 36 and 37 of my diary.

We are four brothers, close in age: I'm Adrian, Peter, Sasha (Aleksander) and Pasha - always lived together. Summers (1887-1897) we carried out in the open air in the garden of our house in Kursk at the intersection of Golden and the Moscow streets, full of apples, pears, currants, gooseberries, raspberries, strawberries and all sorts of vegetables.
