Pohna with the purpose of ending his
days in solitude, to which he more
and more inclined in his latter years.
Learning that lbs retreat had been
discovered, he insisted upon proceed

close to the Tolstoian colony on the
shores of the Black sea.
But on the railroad journey he was
overcome with exhaustion and the
cold, and DR.. Makvoetski was CON-
PEELED to have him transferred to the
aagstation at Astapova, where he was
made as comfortable as possible in
the rude wooden building
His wife and members of his family

come of the emotion their presence
would cause the patient. The veneer
able writer passed away without a
word of farewell to the members oil
his family.
Count Lyof NikolavItch Tolstoi, usu
ally called Count Leo Tolstoi, novel
list and social reformer, was born Au
gust 20, 1928, at Yasnaya-Poliana, in
the province of lula, Russia. When
% years of age he entered the army
and served in the cavalry in the eau
casus and in the defense of Sebasto.
pol against the British and French al
lied forces.
He first made reputation in litera-
ature by series Of vivid sketches
written from Sabastopol, and when
he left the army soon after the Cri.
mean war, he devoted himself entirely
to literature.
Tolstoi was several times threaten
ed with expulsion from Russia and
was several times, according to re-
but he seemed on the whole to have
been treated with unusual leniency
in view of his pronounced views. He
was, however, expelled from Moscow
in July. 1901, and had since resided
at Yasnaya-Poliana.
Although Tolstoi came of an aris-
tocratc family, he was at heart a
peasant in the best sense of the word
devoted to the improvement of the
condition of the Russian masses and
eager to lead them in the right path.
With these objects in view, as early
as 1875, he organized peasant schools
on a new, original basis, cooperated
in the improvement of cheap, popular
publications, organized relief for the
starving population of middle Russia
In 1892 renowned his property in
copyright, land and money, and, in
the recent agrarian disturbances act
ually, but vainly, invited the peasants
to plumber his estate at Yasnaya-Po
llama.
There he lived the life of peasant
in peasants hut partaking only OF
simple PEASANTS food and wearing
the peasants costume-rough blouse,
broad, leather belt, fur cap, long
beard, wide trousers tucked into high
cowhide boots.
But although Tolstoi chose the ex-
istence of a peasant, his family occu-
pied the substantial family mansion
on the Yasnaya-Poliana estate, not
far from Tolstoi's peasant hut
