“FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH”
The above group was taken at Tobolsk during the captivity. All except M. Pierre Gilliard, the French tutor (in the centre), died for their loyalty to the Imperial family. Countess Hendrikova is seated on the right with Mlle. Schneider by her side. Their mangled bodies were found outside Perm. Count Tatishchev (left) and Prince Dolgoruky (right) “disappeared” at Ekaterinburg. Two bodies, supposed to be theirs, were found outside the city, one bearing documents of “citizen Dolgorukov.”
THE FAULTS OF THE EARLIER INQUIRY
N. A. Sokolov, pointing to the wall of Ipatiev’s house, calls attention to a serious omission made by his predecessor. General Diterichs (seated) listens. The other auditor is M. Magnitsky, Prokuror (Public Prosecutor) of the Ekaterinburg Court. Photograph taken in the garden, beside the terrace.
AT THE GANINA MINE
On the left, Mr. Sydney Gibbes, the Tsarevich’s tutor; on the right, looking down the shaft, Mr. Robert Wilton, “The London Times” Special Correspondent. At the bottom of this shaft was a false floor beneath which the ashes of the victims were cunningly concealed. The bodies had been cut up near the shaft and burned on two pyres, one next to this spot.
