Description:

Issue 1.

"I feel the need to explain myself to the Reader from the publication of this booklet.A man on whose opinion I have always relied very much, Father Kalinka, urged me to do so many times, maintaining that these notes from holiday travels may not be without use. I always refused, thinking that it is a trivial thing, which once in a periodical magazine can get away with, but a separate issue is not worthy. And now I think the same: but now Father Kalinka is gone. It is nice after his death to fulfill what was his wish, to follow his opinion once again. A small thing, but always, after all, some proof of faithful memory and gratitude. Author."
