Saratov Governorate
From May to late November 1865 Nalbandian was put into virtual house arrest in St. Petersburg. He was then exiled to the city of Kamyshin in the Saratov Governorate. He reached Kamyshin "more dead than alive," in his own words. Having already contracted tuberculosis, he also frequently had a high fever. Nalbandian died on 31 March (12 April in the New Style) in Kamyshin.
