Excerpt from Sixty Years, Vol. 1: Life and Adventure in the Far East

IT was my fate to remain perforce in Odessa during a perilous and miserable period, when the Port was a sea of flame and the scene of massacre and terror. Later, strikes on the rail ways, in the post and telegraph services, and among the sailors and engineers of the steamship companies, accompanied by continued disorders, paralysed the trade of Southern Russia. I had practically nothing to do and found my enforced idleness weigh heavily on me.
