The death at Nice of Olga Korzakov, a 68 year old Russian: refugee, who once lived in Lon- don, recalls the amazing tragedy of her youth, which resulted in a young, officer being married, divorced and shot within one hour.
Olga Korzakov lived in Moscow when she was sixteen. She was the most striking beauty at the Russian Court, where she was taken by her father, who was one of the Tzar's closest friends, Many men clamoured for her hand and among them were officers of all renka of the Royal Guard. Among these was a young Captain. Rozvolski.
One night, when Rozvalski and his friends were carousing, they heard by chance that Olyn's father had been suddenly called away from home. Rozvolski conceived a bold plan to win the girl. He went to her house, claimed to have brought # message from her father, saw Olga and persunited her to accompany him to his ap partment. Once there she Was forced to join in their feast and stay the night. '
TRAGIC HOUR.
On her father's return she told i him what had happened. Ic rashed at once to the Tsar and informed him. The Tzar ordered a special parade of officers, during which Olga picked out Rozvolaki
na the culprit.
The Tear immediately sent for a priest and ordered him to marry Captain Rozvolaki to Olga Korza- kov. When the ceremony Was completed, he ordered him to `divorce them immediately. This ceremony was also speedily com- plated. Then Rozvolski's badges of rank were torn from him, he was marched away under escort, and within an hour of being mar- ried he was shot.
The dead officer left a huge fortune, which went to his bride) of one hour. But she could never' forget the tragedy of her wedding. She travelled extensively, lived long in London, Paris andTM Rome. She died recently in Nice. The news of her death reminded a Russian refugee in Belgrade of her tragic history, which described in a newspaper article. ---Reuter.
