"When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, andwent and told it in the city and in the country."Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesusand found the man, out of whom the devils were departed,sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind;and they were afraid."Luke, ch. viii. 32-37.IN UNDERTAKING to describe the recent and strange incidents in our town, till lately wrapped in uneventful obscurity, I find myself forced in absence of literary skill to begin my story rather far back, that is to say, with certain biographical details concerning that talented and highly-esteemed gentleman, Stepan Trofimovitch Verhovensky. I trust that these details may at least serve as an introduction, while my projected story itself will come later.
I have a question about the book:
'The Possessed or the Devils - Dostoyevsky, Fyodor'.
