I've beaten two celebrated authors and one painter!" "What are you crying for?" "At Kherson I killed a horse with my fists. And at Taganrog some roughs fell upon me at night, fifteen of them. I took off their caps and they followed me, begging: 'Uncle, give us back our caps. That's how I used to go on." "What are you crying for, then, you silly?" "But now it's all over . . . I feel it.

A monk revealed to my brother Ilya the Kingdom of Heaven be his that in one place in the fortress of Taganrog there was a treasure under three stones, and that that treasure was under a charm, and in those days it was, I remember, in the year '38 an Armenian used to live at Matvyeev Barrow who sold talismans. Ilya bought a talisman, took two other fellows with him, and went to Taganrog.

You have noticed, too, and emphasized that a fat man brrr! exudes a sort of greasiness, but you completely lose sight of the fact that he is a professor that is, that he has spent several years in thinking and doing something which sets him high above millions of men, high above all the Verotchkas and Taganrog Greek girls, high above dinners and wines of all sorts.

In 1887, the large South-Russian cities Rostov-on-the Don and Taganrog were transferred from the Pale of Settlement to the tabooed territory of the Don Army.

As for your criticism, it was most likely far from severe, as I don't remember it. I only remember that Vvedensky and I for some reason roared with laughter as we listened to you. Do you want my biography? Here it is. I was born in Taganrog in 1860. I finished the course at Taganrog high school in 1879. In 1884 I took my degree in medicine at the University of Moscow.

Taganrog was summoned to surrender, but the governor refused, and a brisk fire was opened on the place. In vain the enemy endeavoured to get down to the store-houses on the beach to protect them.

They kill hens, geese, pigs, etc., by shooting here. The shooting is incessant. TAGANROG, May 11. ... From K.'s I went to the Holy Mountains.... I came to Slavyansk on a dark evening.
