Tuesday, May 15, 1923. Bloody Lenin heads to his dacha.

Lenin moved his office from the Kremlin to his vacation dacha in the Gorki Leninskiye neighborhood as his health declined.

Yes, the leader of the workers of the Russian Revolution had a vacation dacha, which most Soviet workers. . . did not.

Strange.

Well, I'm sure that with all the blood on his hands and distended bellies on his mind, he needed a place to get away.

Eighty-one radio frequencies went into operation through US airwaves allotments.

The League of Nations approved the transfer of Galicia to Poland. Today it is in Poland and Ukraine.

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
