Abstract

The article attempts to reconstruct the most dramatic episode of Sologub’s and Chebotarevs-kaya’s later days, their persistent efforts to emigrate from the Soviet Russia between 1919 and 1921. The recently discovered documents (primarily from the Russian State Military Archive), enrich the chronicle of these attempts with new documents and characters; the role of L. D. Trotsky, L. B. Kamenev and other prominent Bolsheviks appears in a different light. A letter from A.V. Kartashev to K. K. Enkel, requesting an entrance permit to Finland (March 1919), is published in the Appendix.
