Note 46 — Chapter XI · THE VISIT OF THE MINISTER—I AM TURNED INTO A CONVICT—THE PRISON AT KIËV
Helen Chisholm translation
It should be remembered that in private intercourse Russians do not use their family names, but the Christian name combined with the Christian name of the father, e.g. Vladimir Kàrpovitch—Vladimir, son of Kàrpo, the same man’s family name being Debagòrio-Makriyèvitch.
