short stories. In 1877, he
volunteered to serve in
the army at the start of

They both recognized each other. The station-master had been an
officer in Semyon's regiment.
“You are Ivanov?" he said.
“Yes, Your Excellency."
"How do you come to be here?"
Semyon told him all. “There is nowhere for me to go. I must
hunt for work, sir.”
The station-master looked at him and said, “Stay here for a
while at the station. Where is your wife?»
