CHAPTER XII
THE EPISTLE TO THE CAUCASIANS

MY kit for the Caucasus was composed of the following:—

A waterproof sleeping-sack,

A camel-hair blanket,

A pair of Georgian boots,

A flannel bashleek—a sort of hood to protect the head from cold,

Two suits of clothes—one of flannel, one of cloth,

A wadded overcoat,

A revolver,
