In December, 1913, when I was just returning toR ussia after my tramp in A merica, The London Times came forward and put its columns at my disposal, and I was able to record my impressions there throughout the whole of the year. During the winter I was seeking words and stories and impressions that would convey better the idea of Russia as the great religious force of Eiurope: Russia the sanctuary from Westemism. My first articles dealt with the religion of Russia, the meeting of old friends, the idea of sanctuary. I visited many old friends of whom I have written in my books before Pereplotchikof, the Russian painter, with whom I spent a summer in the forests of A rchangel; Loosha, whom I met at Batmn; Varvara Hinitchna, of the cottage with the Chinese wall at Gelendzhik, on theB lackS ea shore; the old grandmother at Vladikavkaz, to whom I brought a crown of thorns and a cross after my pilgrimage to Jerusalem. My first letters home were fromM oscow, Kief, Vladikavkaz, and other towns.
