Excerpt from Respice Finem, or Love in Exile: A Novel In the narrative which follows there is an honest endeavour to set forth without prejudice a presentment of the life led at home in Russia and abroad in exile by a political "suspect." To Englishmen, whose love of liberty is as the very breath of life, and whose social and moral condition is an honour and a safeguard to all who act for the universal welfare, this record is dedicated of a man's brave struggle for his country's freedom and a woman's perfect devotion.
