Moscow, the populace had an >un-
usual opportunity to see him at close
quarters. He was taking a walk,
with members of his family, on the
wall of the Kremlin. At the Nikolski
gate he had the choice of returning
or going down into the street and up
again to the wall on the other side.
He chose the latter alternative, and
walked, without military escort,
through a dense concourse of his sub
jects. These were wild with joy at
seeing the imperial couple among
them; many began to sob, and the
czar himself had tears in his eyes
