Sergey Ivanovitch explained to him the meaning and object of the proposed revolution at the elections. Offended you are a fuck I do not give shirt . The marshal of the province in whose hands the law had placed the control of so many important public functions–the guardianship of wards (the very department which was giving Levin so much trouble just now), the disposal of large sums subscribed by the nobility of the province, the high schools, female, male, and military, and popular instruction on the new model, and finally, the district council–the marshal of the province.
