Marcia F. Heald correspondence (MS 35), ca. 1898-1934.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/220231855

The Marcia F. Heald correspondence comprises 24 letters including personal letters and responses from publishers. It includes one letter from Leo Tolstoy to Ernest Crosby, dated 11 July 1898. Tolstoy's letter discusses the plight of the Doukhabors, or Spirit Wrestlers, a Christian pacifist group persecuted in Tsarist Russia for their refusal to serve in the military. Tolstoy requests assistance from Crosby in finding land in Texas for them to settle. Six months later, Sergei Tolstoy sailed with 2,333 Doukhobors from the Black Sea port of Batoum to Halifax. They settled in Canada. It also includes two letters from Count Ilya Tolstoy (1928; 1931) and 1 from his wife, Nadine (n.d.).
