First sentence: ON the morning of the 1st of August, 1843, accompanied by my fellow-travellers, Prince Paul Lieven, Herr von Aderkass, and Herr von Schwartz, I took a boat in the harbour of Kertsch on the Black Sea, and was carried to the Russian war steamer, which lay in sight, rocking upon the waves.
