 Son of Wealthy Peasant.
 This modern Richelieu is the son of fairly wealthy peasant of To- bolsk. He had but little schooling and led an uneventful life until about thirty years old. when he de- veloped religious fervor, became a lay monk and went on pilgrimage At the monasteries he visited, he picked up some learning, and also managed to receive a letter of intro- duction to Bishop Theofan at St. Pe- tersburg This was in 1900. Through the influence of the bishop, the pea sant began to meet the influential people of the city and court. His mystic philosophy created interest, polite conversation.
 At first Rasputin stuck to his peasant garb, in which he made a. picturesque figure. But soon he LOOK up an elegant style of dressing and living, which excited the envy of Bishop Theofan. The bishop ob ta1ned an order to exile Rasputin to Siberia. But not only did Rasputin's appeal to the czar save him, but caused the bishop to be dismissed to
