In one place, Menshikov became 1 governor. After the death of Peter I. Walking and ear of growth

Count (1702), Prince (+1705) Oleksandr Danilovich Menshikov (6 (16) falling leaves 1673, Moscow - 12 (23) falling leaves No. 1729, Bereziv, Siberian province) - Russian sovereign and Vyskovy Petty devil, best companion I General Field Marshal (1709), the first St. Petersburg Governor-General (1703-1724 і 1725-1727), President of the Vіyskovo College (1719-1724 і 1726-1727). A single Russian nobleman, who renounced the title of duke from the Russian monarch (“Duke Izhora”, 1707 rik).

About Menshikov's prowess of reliable documentary evidence was not spared, the thoughts of history were driven by the great greats. Batko, Danilo Menshikov, died in 1695 rotsi. For the popular version among the people, before that, you can eat in F. Ya. Lefort's otochennya, "The half-state gentleman" selling pies in the capital. The axis yak qiu history is to be produced by M.I. Kostomarov:

Khlopchisko vіdrіznyavya earlier twists and jokes, which buzzed in the name of the Russian retailers, cim vin having lured to itself buyers. Became a youmu passes and poz the palace of the famous and strong at that hour Lefort; Having pummeled the kumed boy, Lefort called him to his room and energized: "Who will you be in for your whole box of pies?" - "Please, buy pies, but I won't sell boxes without the permission of the ruler," said Oleksandr - that was the name of the high school boy. "Do you want to serve me?" - powering yogo Lefort. "Douzhe radium, - said that, - only if you need to go to the ruler." Lefort bought all the pies from him and said: "If you see the priests, come home to me." We would not like to admit the boy to the feast, and to make sure that the important pan brav yogo in his servant. Menshikov nadіyshov to Lefort and nadіv yogo lіvreyu.

For the life of Menshikov, he respected that he was a viceroy of the Lithuanian nobles, I want a version of the traditionally victorious sumniv in history. The legend about the seller of pies, however, could have been put into circulation by the opponents of the prince, so that they could be humiliated by A.S. Pushkin:

... Menshikov, having walked like the nobility of Bilorus. Winning close to Orsha his own mothers. Nicholas didn’t buy a lackey and didn’t sell pies. Tse zhart boyars, taken by the historians for the truth.

submission
Oleksandr at the age of 14 was accepted by Peter as an orderly, and he didn’t sound like he didn’t just do it, but the friendship of the tsar, he was the first friend of all the victories and burial. Having helped him in the “quiet vijsk” in the village of Preobrazhensky (from 1693 he was listed as the bombardier of the Preobrazhensky regiment, de Petro became the captain of the bombardier roti; In 1699 rotsi renounced the name of the ship's pidmaistri.
Menshikov settled for the tsar, who was superbly engaged in trips across Russia, in the Azov campaigns, of the same age. Petro did not have mercy on his choice. The time limit can be up to 1686 rubles. Menshikov, having copied a lot of the valet's posad i, did not pass by accidently under the sovereign, retired viconuvav was given to him for additional service; DO NOT see it ill; Pam'yatav instruct; from the small patience of Volodar's fiery fieryness, for the sake of sleepy sleep. Dovіrenіst to New Peter grew up a little bit. Vin having recorded him in the company of the quiet, I was put together from some nobles; Buv with a testimony of the first years of good fortune at the capture of Azov (1696). V offensive rotsi Menshikov may be happy to see folds against the Monarch; suprovodzhuvav you in a foreign land at the invitation of a nobleman; Buv in Prussia, England, Nimechchin and Holland, at once with the Sovereign coming to the ship from August 30, 1697 until January 15, 1698; walking every day on the robot, mayuchi sokiru in his belt; having written off the letter of praise from the teslyar POL for his diligence and success.

Zvidsya to obey the shvidke zrostannya yogo: having turned to the Fatherland, nominated to the sergeant of the Guard of the Preobrazhensky regiment (1698); in 1700 he was a lieutenant of the bombardier company [the bombardier company was established under the Preobrazhensky regiment by Peter the Great in 1695. Win Buv Colonel of the regiment and Capitan roti.]; in 1702 he became the Governor of Noteburg, renamed Shlisselburg. Menshikov, like Peter the Great, named in his sheets: Oleksasha, to the children of his heart, having taken the fate of the fortune-teller taken by Field Marshal Sheremetevim: having turned the brave warriors into an attack under a hail of fortune-tellers and buckshot.

The merits of Menshikov were brought to the city. Overbought in Poland with ten thousand vіyska, vіn zdobuv 18 Zhovtnya (1706) before Kalishі, the famous victory over the Polish-Swedish corps, ocholyvanі by General Mardefeld. Peremoga tsya viklyuchno to lay down Menshikov, more August II-nd buv with a glance, uklavshi with the secret rite of the truce with Karl XII-m.

Peter the Great with an indescribable radio - as having taken Menshikov into his own leaves - having made a sound about overthrowing the road, as there weren't any nicholas; having wound his love of the military commander's rod, adorned with a great emerald, diamonds, emblems and the Prince's coat of arms in three thousand rubles; having honored yogo peace in the Colonels of the Preobrazhensky regiment. With the help of the door, I will explain the winnings of the Sovereign! "Mabut, - wrote Menshikov, - musish the generals of the generals to amuse them especially by looking at them with sheets, or in the sheets before me prescribing to the skin, especially for good management."

At the top of the honors of the wines, not being afraid of joint relations, they can bring half of the chief dignitaries to the State: General-Admiral Apraksin and Keruv Posolsky on the right of Count Golovkin, who was the first, in that hour the Menshikov was not a family member of the same family. to the room [Zvannya, who was told by the Ober-chamberlain's ninish.]. One only tilka Sheremet, Boyarin from 1682 і Field Marshal General, if Menshikov served as a lieutenant in the bombardier roti, as he didn’t shrug in front of him a chola adorned with laurels.

Having shown new memories of his manhood in the battle under Lisov (1708), in which Peter the Great absolutely defeated the Swedish General Levengaupt, Menshikov went to Maloros to be followed by Mazepa's vchinki and the insight of his defenders having raised the sword of all the inhabitants, among that number they are dumb; having turned on the beautiful Hetmansky Palace, embellishments for the Polish name, thirty mln, hlibny store, prepared for the gate; opanuvav lane Mazepi, forty garmatami, krim mortars.

The sovereign, occupying the vіyskovy deiami, having surpassed Menshikov without a heap for tsey vіyskovy feat, altogether on the cob 1709 fate (9 Fierce) taking in the Holy Font of the newly-born sine yogo, Luka-Peter, and giving him the courtyard a lieutenant [ Prince Luka-Petro died in 1712 rotsi.].

Glory to Ochikuval Menshikov on the Poltava Field: having survived one retrenchment of the Swedes, having completed it before the next, Prince Izhora won respect for the enemy from the city and having won the fortune of our garnizon of 900 wars; In the dark, on the unforgettable day of the battle, 27 Chervnya, zupiniv in the shvidke of the Swedes, made their way through our redoubt, giving an hour of information to enter into the most beautiful order. Two horses were driven into him at that hour. Followed by Tim Menshikov attacked General Roos, the lead army of the Swedish army, led by їm zagin, trying to build up to General Renzel; They created a three-thousandth reserve corps of the fortune-teller, blaming him and turning to the Monarch with a hand and full of them.

"Yaksho, - as if Walter in the history of his Karl XII, - Menshikov made a complete maneuver by himself, then Russia is tied to him by his order; if it was the Tsar's order that was victorious, then Petro is the last supernik of Charles XII". - I felt the head beat, and Menshikov, before the bullet was driven into the third one, taking a change, giving Swedish to the book with such force, turning it into the flow, at the same time yak the Field Marshal Sheremetouv The Swedes rushed to Reshetylivtsi, sent by Prince Golitsin and Bour. On the 1st Lipnya Menshikov attacked the enemy before the Pivot with a ten-thousand onslaught of the enemy and men’s onslaught against the thirteen thousand people for the sake of the evil.

The great Monarch took Menshikov in the presence of the army, kilka developed a head-on, glorious in his deeds, labors; having given the yoma (7th Lipnya) the rank of another Russian Field Marshal General and not wanting to go to Moscow without a new mother: 15, Prince Izhora's Breast arrived in the village of Kolomenske, de Petro the Great ochіkuvav yogo; On the 16th, the inhabitants of the ancient capital beat their kohan monarch and beloved, on the right, in the Preobrazhensky uniform, with a bare sword - Menshikov.
Tim Menshikov became Governor-General in St. Petersburg, now he went to the Vіyskovo College, to the Admiralty and the Senate, if not to become a Senator. If you do not suffer from ceremonial receptions, Peter the Great poklavniy to the Prince of the Grand Duke of his and Ministries of the West. There were two hundred herbs in the tract of days, which were served on a golden service, which were prepared by the smartest French cooks.

Menshikov's budinok is located on the Vasilivsky island, there, de nini the first Cadet corps. The colors of the rooms were: tapestries and tapestries, presented to the Emperor in Paris; great bronze years with boom and chimes; chandeliers with a colour crystal with golden and medium beads; great Venezian mirrors in mirrors frames with gilded hoops; Persian kilimi; tables on those visolochened nizkahs with wickerwork from a rose-colored tree, which represented all kinds of animals and birds; sofas and stilettos with high backs, on which images the coat of arms of the sovereign with the Prince's crown. Behind the booth there is a great garden, which in St. Petersburg is the Tsar's song, with greenhouses, sheds of fruit trees, birdmen and a small animal. Menshikov mav his Chamberlains, Kamer-Junkers and pages of nobles. The rest were honored by the Guard Sergeants.

At the place of travel there is a superb food: go to the bank of the Neva with a number of retinue, the beloved Peter, sitting in a priestly choven, upholstered in the middle of green oxamite and gilded call. I will moor up to Isaac's pier, de nini Senate. There was a Menshikov's carriage, shattered to the eye, on low wheels, with a golden coat of arms on the doors, the Great Prince's crown and the same metal on the imperial and harnessed with a lot of knives. Zbruya їkh was stored in raspberry oksamite with golden or middle tints. In front of them there were fast walkers and servants of a booth in a bagacy of livrei; then there was music and pages on horseback, in blue cloth and oxamite zhupans with gold laces at the seams; at the carriage there were a number of Cameras-Junkers, with one trimmed by the door handle. A corral of dragoons to the Prince's regiment fell on the go. The sovereign, vizdzhayuchi from the capitals, entrusting his family to Menshikov. Win buv Ober-Hoffmeister of the unhappy Tsarevich Oleksiy Petrovich and saw from all over the place, for the vlast species (1705), the guided mentor, Gizen, at that very hour, as the rest of the life began in the history of the hard-hitting young people.

If, in 1718, the Spadkoєmets was sent to the Throne by the court of Peter the Great, Menshikov took a great part in the whole important journey: the skin day went to the fortress; having spent an hour after finishing drinking and katuvan: drinking with the Prince and on the day of his death 26 worms.

Tim in an hour, Chancery of the Slidcha, before the heads of Major General Prince Golitsin, threatened to imprison Menshikov in front of the war for insufficient penalties for pennies. Volodar, fifty thousand villagers, having married six inadequate minimum incomes of the community, blessing the Sovereign to try this borg from a significant income, ruined by him belongings! Peter the Great, writing in the name of yogo: do not brother. Oholola Lisuvannya Menshikov with the Tsar. Earlier, he named the Sovereign in his sheets: Pan Capitan, Colonel, Counter-Admiral; having repaired in a vicious way with the words: I convey your mercy; written simply: Oleksandr Menshikov [Menshikov nikoli not signed by the Prince.]; allowing one not to vikonuvati orders from Yogo; And yet from that hour, as I went on the journey, without writing to Peter, yak: All-Merciful Sovereign! I convey to your royal greatness, Father and Emperor and in. - Your Tsar's Greatness is all the most important slave. Win not overwhelmed by the orders of the Monarch; to see and about the power of your consumer, beating right up to the new, ale to the Secretary of the Tsarsky, G. Makarov, asking for him, as his kindness and beneficent, to add more about those inherently of his greatness.

Menshikov went to see the Emperor about those who had been brought up: in the Senate, in the Colleges, in the capitals; after having renounced the visibility of foreign lands and at the same hour, for a special unhappiness, having vomited the unhappy Pidchancellor Baron Shafirova, having become the main guilty party of the year; svyatkuvav 6 leaf fall on St. Petersburg, its people with the thunder of seventeen banners, spreading out to the booth! Still shanolyub can be written in its own way, if it’s like a fall. From 1721, on the day of the jogi birthday, only 31 built of garmat were played; іlumіnatsіya in mіstі papinilas; next to her was a striker with garmat (from 1723 to rock).

In 1724, the rotsi were rejected the title of the President of the Vijs'kovo Collegia, as in 1718 they had been renounced at the very establishment of it. Behind the words of Bassevich, Petro saw his beloved's head go to the wrong place. Todi, having paid in two hundred thousand rubles penalty pennies and rapt, all the food was brought to the booth; there are simple tapestries on the walls! The sovereign zdivuvsya, punching such a snake, jamming the explanation. "I will be tempted," Menshikov said, "to sell my tapestries and shtofi, I want a little bit of satisfaction from the government’s constriction!" “Farewell,” the Emperor said to him. - The first good day is yours, if I know this is the same day, because I don’t see your call, I would like to pay you another two thousand rubles! - Peter the Great streaming his word; seeing Menshikov; know and before the improvement, befitting the Prince Izhora; having mercy on rich furniture, not guessing about the past, and having superbly fun.

In such a contiguous position, Menshikov was found, since the unhappy death made the life of Peter the Great dear for the Victory (June 28, 1725). A great field has opened up to the endless ideas of yogo! The Monarch was gone, and the first Chinas of the Empire closed themselves in one room of the Palace, rejoiced among themselves about the enthronement of the young Grand Duke, the son of Tsarevich Alexy. Vartovі boules were placed in front of the door behind the fence of Menshikov's inlet. So, having broken Todd Tsey, the dweller of whom everyone feared? Vin ordered to lead the company of the Preobrazhensky regiment and with it directly go to this room, punishing the doors and voting Catherine I, the Empress of All Russia. Nichto, not having looked at only the smilie vchinka, nikhto having not bothered with super-reading, everyone swore allegiance [The message was given to G. Bishing by an eyewitness, Field Marshal Graf Minich.]!

With such a rank, Lіflyandka, who was known at the services in the Pastor, entered into the pre-occupation of Marienburg by the Russians (1702), on that day she wasted a man who was killed in battle; introduced by the soldiers to General Bour; intercessor Field Marshal Count Sheremetevim and Menshikov, in the booth that lived two rockets and the stars moved to the palace; was killed in 1707 by the squad of Peter the Great; vypravda Vibir Yogo in the unhappy trip to Moldova (1711); crowned Um in Moscow (1724), even before the death of the Sovereign, they called on themselves a fair test of Yogo.

One can judge about the chilled Peter the Great to Katerini by the coming pod: in 1724 24 leaf fall was fired on the day of Tezomenism, 21 times were fired from the harmat only 21 times.]

All the Communities, which robbed the servants of the Prince Izhora by state orders and stolen, blamed innocently; the number of villagers increased to one hundred thousand souls; the place of Baturin (which - behind Menshikov's words - nibi bouv yomu obіtsyano Peter the Great) became the same [Peter the Great rіshuche vіdmoviv Menshikov in the gift of Baturin.].

Winning the names of the first Member of the Supreme Tatar Radiation, established for his submissions for the application to the Senate; The eleventh blue nod of the acting chamberlain, the lieutenant of the Preobrazhensky regiment, the knight of the Order of St. Catherine Home; offended daughters, Princess Marya, enlisted by Count Peter Sapega, and Princess Oleksandra rendered portraits of the Empress for wearing on blakitnyh bows; maybutnіy son-in-law of yogo insurance to the highest Court of the Chamberlain, nominated by the Knight of the Order of St. Oleksandr Nevsky, also honored with the portrait of the Tsar.

Like Tim Menshikov, I have become familiar with the name of the President, I have the right to welcome to the Colonel, being Vice-Admiral, allowing the announcement of General-Admiral Count Apraksin; keruvav and call from the right, or, more beautifully, say, by the first glimpse, dyuchi im'yam Katerini. Ale may be satisfied with yogi. Vіn bazhav bіlshogo: іnuyutsya Duke Іzhorsky, the prince of rimsky Russian Powers, Reichs-Marshal and commanded by General-Field Marshal, All-Russian Vice-Admiral, General-Governor of the Governor of St. tamnim Radnik, Colonel of the Transfiguration Life Guard, Colonel over three regiments and Captain of the Bombardier Company - went to visit the Generalsimus, to the Duchy of Courland; going to Mitava; zruynuvav premeditated shlyub of the widowed Duchess of Courland Annie Ioanivni with the glorious Moritz of Saxony; to the power of his own mind, he didn’t wait for the sights, і, deceptions in the hope, turning to St. Petersburg without rejecting the bazhany.

The Kurlanders were dumbfounded: why Menshikov’s mother cannot be a Duke, but it’s not Nimets, but not Lutheran’s spovidannya. Tim one hour before the hour of the day, the power-hungry kilka of the courtier transformed the tsar to sign the decree about the resigned one on the road; ale the Minister of Holshtinsky To the Court of Count Bassevich, interceding for the love of happiness, and the dawn of the day was lost. Marno Menshikov reckoned to take revenge on his mysterious enemies - the stench became unshkodzheniye, to the annoyance of the defended nobleman. Transmitting an important coup, which should have sent to the State, wins the Empress, the tortures of his health, give a spiritual commandment to the young Grand Duke of the right to the Throne, with the help of Petro, if the princess has been helped by his daughter, Marry.

Tim at the same time, the person was also acting: Count Tolstoy, the head thereof, fearing the favor of Tsarina Evdokiya Fedorivna for the fate of Tsarevich Alexia in honor of her father, and having enthralled the Sovereign with one of the governors of the Grand Duke in a foreign land, having initiated The Duke of Holstein trained him for the powerhouse. Katerina, weak for an hour, didn’t know where to start. Because of Menshikov's perspicacity, they began to think of his enemies: their death had become inevitable. In the square (1727 rock) the tsar's ailment was zbilshilas. Menshikov went to the Palace on the 10th and was not accidentally found there.

Nezabarom vipala youomu vipadok triumph over opponents. On the 16th, if the whole Dvir went through a supercilious confusion through the air-conditioned camp of the Empress, General-Police Chief Count Devier, who was lying to the opposite party, did not care about the close dispute with the Menshikov's friend Ostannіy yogo visіk, if we are ready to get married, ale Peter the Great agreed to his love, Pіdnіsshi Devіera. In that hour, he became Menshikov's secret gate.], I, ymovirno, on that day was not in a solid viglyad, after turning around the niece of the Tsar, Countess Sofia Karlivna Skavronskaya, it seems like: Don't need a poster! - And next to him, he went to the Grand Duke, who sat on the ski slope, taking the place with him and saying: About what is it? Drink a glass of wine. Then saying to youmu in vuho: Let's go in a wheelchair. You will be more beautiful. Matіntsі svoєi not be alive. All the people were seen in the presence of the Empress's daughters, in front of the Yakim Devier sidiv [Arsenyev. Div. Tsaryuvannya Katerini I-st.]. Ten days passed, and Winnie got lost without any punishment. In the beginning of the day, the Tsar's office rejected the deyake of the state. On the 26th, the Duke of Izhora returned to his home on Vasilievsky Island, taking with him the Grand Duke Peter Oleksiyovich and his sister, Grand Duchess Natalia Oleksiyivna: who spent the night in the chambers of Sina Menshikov, a friend of his daughters. Vіn mav on that day I am rozmovu with the Chancellor Count Golovkina and Deisnim Taumnim Radnik Prince Dmitry Mikhailovich Golitsin.

Todi was selected by the Slidcha Comisia, before the heads of the Chancellor, over the Count Devier for the great knowledge, evil for the sake of and for us. Members of Menshikov's henchmen are: Golitsin, Lieutenant General Dmitriyev-Mamonov, Prince Yusupov and Colonel Famintsin. It was ordered for help katuvannya to add wine about yogo spіlnikіv. Vin naymenovav: Tolstoy, Buturlina, Narishkina, Ushakov, Skornyakova-Pisarova. On the 2nd Herb, the Empress saw a feverish woman, having a dry cough, and Menshikov had already traveled to the Palats, kvapiv (5th Herb) Golovkina: schob vin shvidshe virishiv next to the right, to the right, to add an extract to all the folds. Div. Tsaryuvannya Katerini I-st.].

The will of the yogo viconan. On May 6, Katerina, not very well before her death, sent in nine in the afternoon [Katerina I died from a teat in her lung, 45 times from the people.], The matchmaker of the Grand Duke, who was seen according to his new will

On that very day of Peter the Great's love, Count Petro Andriyovich Tolstoy and Ivan Ivanovich Buturlin [see. biography of Count Tolstoy and I. І. Buturlina] added ranks, sign; the first of the missions at once with the blue in the Solovetsky Monastery, de-sking in the life of life, glorified by famous exploits; other directions in a distant village; Oleksandr Lvovich Narishkin also welcomes and visions from the capital; Andriy Ivanovich Ushakov, who served in the Guard Major, was transferred by the same rank to the army regiment; Count Devier and Kolishniy Ober-Prosecutor Skornyakov-Pisarov punished with a batog and sent to Yakutsk.

The next day (7th Grass) Menshikov threw himself earlier than the witch, about the past year, and inadvertently put on his uniform, his order. Todi have come to live until the new Member of the Supreme State for the sake of the Holy Synod, the Visokiy Senate and the General, who have moved to Petersburg. As a result of the eighth year, the stench went down to Tsar's Grand Duke Petro Oleksiyovych, supervised by Menshikov, і sіv at the crystal, put for the new one on the high mіsci. Suchasnik, Duke de Liria [Spanish in Russia Ambassador.], Having conveyed to us: Onuk Peter the Great, a high growth, bilyaviy, with a malady, a statue of a father. On the face of this image, a lagid thought was imagined and, at once, the importance, the fun. Win ma in kind heart, happy memory; Buv generous and submissive to the feeling of being sick; Ale not forgetting his dignity. - Menshikov presenting the spiritual commandment of the retiring empress, opening it up and handing over to Stepanov, instructing him to read it in a voice. Gliboka quiet panuvala in numerical selection; all told the nobility: in what Katerini's will fell, they heard with respect.

"If I want our motherly love, - to move the first of the spiritual statute, - our daughters, the Duchess of Holshtinska Anna Petrivna and Ulisaveta Petrivna, could have been importantly recognized by Our offender, who would be taken over in the heroes of the great we signify Sob as an offender of the Grand Duke Peter Oleksiyovich. " -

They followed this statty, which was set before the Opika before the hour of the emperor's failure; vlada of the Supreme Sake, the order of the fall of the Throne in the time of the death of Peter; two twelve were present. "For the promises of the servants, bestowed upon the departed Guardian of Ours and for Us by the Prince Menshikov, We cannot show more proof of Our best mercy, as the star of the Russian Throne, one of our daughters, and we will punish us so that our Daughters the arm of the Grand Duke with one of the daughters of Prince Menshikov, and if you can catch the stench again, until you are a whore. " -

Everyone moved, they didn’t think they thought they were, hoping they did well, but they didn’t know Pani, but the beloved one told me spiritually Peter II thundered by the Emperor about the tenth year (7th Grass) during the harmony of the St. Having accepted the admiration of the best Chinivs, Vin viyshov to the Guards regiments, the Preobrazhensky and Semenivsky, who had lost the Palace and secretly swore allegiance to the young Monarch. On that day Menshikov was given Admiral; May 12 General_simus; On the 17th of the year, the Emperor was transported to his own house on the Vasilyevsky Island, which is named after the Preobrazhensky Island; On the 25th, starting up to the victory of his gigantic plans: at the end of the third year in the afternoon, the enlistment of the eleventh-born Peter II from the sixteen-year-old Princess Mary was announced.

The nobles hated the Ruler of the Empire for his uncompromising pride, unbounded possessiveness: in vain in their power, in the indignation of this homine. The Earthen Dvori gave this special povag: Ale at that hour yak Menshikov was known to be in a state of mind, through the summons in front of the Duchy of Courland, the gates of yogi were: Prince Ivan Oleksiyovich Dolgorukov, an unlucky pal of the Emperor, a young man for himself. in particular, the uncle, Prince Vasil Lukich, at his disposal, to all powers, which are not allowed to be seen by all the court; the mouth will be the homeland of the tsar; repeating incessantly: how Menshikov in an hour to swing a swing to the throne; one word Tsarske can turn yogo into the first camp. The Emperor pogodzhuvsya with Dolgorukovy, having looked to obediently zberigati glyboka movchannya.

It was a bit of a bad idea to introduce ourselves: the merchant of Petersburg gave Peter II ten thousand chervints_v. Vin sent them to the gift of his sister. Menshikov sent a message and, knowing that he wasn’t a penny to the Great Duchess, saying: "The Emperor is too young, the nobility is more prone to living pennies: bring me home; I’ll talk about them with him." - And that messenger did not hesitate.

On the next day, Petro fed the Princess: "I won’t deserve a good fortune?" - Vona said she didn’t cut off any present. The monarch was unhappy with these nobles, and he didn’t succeed, if he knew that Menshikov had ordered to bring pennies to himself. - Having cried out yogo, the Sovereign energized with heart: "how can I see the viconati before the ambassador of the viconati Yogo order?" - Menshikov, nіtrokhі didn’t check such a dog, having strongly envied them and said: "the state will need pennies, the treasury is hanging and the same day, the message of Yogo Greatness is about the corny of the investment; there are ten thousand chervintsіv, ale, as if favored by the sovereign, and a million rubles from his own master. " - Petro, knocking his foot, saying: "I will give you a memory, that I am the Emperor and that I am guilty of reproaching Me"; next to the cim Vin viyshov from the room.

Menshikov followed Him and once and for all helped Yogi with unprecedented prodigies. In an unbeatable time, the Duke of Izhora not without failing and getting ready to surrender the earthly greatness, writing two spiritual commandments: the same as the State. After completing his squad, Yasnovelly Possible Princess Darina Mikhailovna, and her brother-in-law, Varvara Mikhailovna Arsenyeva, take the day out until more children and fathers are involved; having punished the mothers' children with love, and made them submissive to mothers and titties; recognizing the sin of his own, Prince Oleksandr, as a spademan of usy's house i, give you cinnamon please, Most instilling a sense of vitality and hot love for the Tsar and Vitality; putting himself in the butt: as the rank of childish rocky in the blessing of Peter the Great, and in his own wisdom and in all his life, jealousy, overturning all the same lines in the power of the Emperor. At the end of the spiritual punishment, having paid the Borgs for their vimoga and asking for vibachennya from all who have been unjustly crooked.

At the Sovereign Act, Menshikov went to the Emperor with haunted: 1) until now, he comes for the commandment of the Sovereign Babka ( Katerini I), Buti can hear Ober-Hofmeister Baron Osterman and Ministrams and do not work without them for their sake; 2) beware of rivets and slander with a secret rank and not letting the Ministers talk about them, so that you can guard yourself against the backbones, because the Ancestors of His Greatness have become aware of them; 3) take care of your health and for that on the road and in your fun come and go peacefully and carefully; from the health of the Sovereign to lay down the prosperity of the Vіtchizni; і, nareshty, 4) having told Peter II to control himself in this way, but all the children and the feats of his were seen as imperative, and it’s unfortunate to go to all of them, as through the beginning of the day and through the help of others. At the end of the nagaduv to the Sovereign, as the message of mav vin about his vikhovanny and what kind of an all-soul rank, serving him in the throne: asking the mother in memory of the service of the sovereign, in mercy to wish you so much і, according to the offense committed before God, at the appropriate hour to enter with her into the lawful love

The crows of Menshikov could have exceeded their age. Between them the cunning Bove Osterman, who looked at the Emperor's wickedness. Vіn buv protection and at once every time, if you have been surrounded; you can’t tolerate yourself. For a long time Osterman rejoiced with Dolgorukov about Menshikov's downfall, who didn’t like the fact that he was overwhelmed by his thug, often didn’t stay with him, rude to him, not calling the Vice-Chancellor, but to be worn by the Andriyiv ​​Order. Having sounded out of the sickness, Menshikov went to Oraninbaum, his own little house for the consecration of the church he had built there in the name of St. Panteleimon the purifier, and to replace him with a special request to ask the Emperor for himself, by sending the requested one. Petro was brought up by the drive of ill health, and the proud Boyarin was about to consecrate the temple, on the 3rd Veresnya, by Archbishop Theophan, taking a seat in the viglyad throne, prepared for the Emperor!

Zuhvaliy of Menshikov's vchinoks, serving for his enemies with a hand until the last blow of his might was inflicted. The stench forced the Emperor of the power to themselves and Russia through the people, as they did not respect their lust for power. Take in yourself in great power and do not put up a hemline, the beloved of Tavern went to Peterhof (4 Veresnya), having spoken to the Emperor, saying helplessly rude words to Osterman, on the first day of his visit to St. Petersburg, about Give me pride everywhere, give instructions to him, robbing him to receive Peter in his little booth, barring Kaysarov’s belongings, giving pennies without a masculine attribution.

On the 6th Veresnya, Lieutenant-General Saltikov voiced Menshikov, all the furniture and speeches of the Sovereign Bully were transported to the Lithuanian Palace. At the same hour, the furniture was turned, as in the position of the Ober-chamberlain, having passed over at the emperor. Menshikov took an important pardon at his place, sent the Ingermanland Regiment to the apartments, and then stood before that hour for his safety in the camp on Vasilivsky Island. nadane to Peter the Great, select the officers in the whole regiment and viroblyaty in the rank. Div. Bishinga, part IX.].

September 7 Menshikov Bouv at the Verkhovna Tamnogo Radio. The sovereign turned to St. Petersburg, spent the night in a new summer palace, and on the other day early warned him to the tortured Grandmaster Saltikov with an order not to enter any law and not see the house until the next day. Princess Menshikova with children hastened to the Palace, to save the Emperor and Yogo to appease him, and ale the entrance and the embarrassment. The beloved of Peter the Great went to the extreme: having written to the Emperor, having been true to himself, blessed: the sun did not come to Yogo's son; asking for help from all inquiries for old age and ailments; shukav the patroness of the Grand Duchess Natalia Oleksiyivnya, ala i tse lost without success. Sporozhnіli vіtalnі disgraced! Only two people have lost their lives: Lieutenant General Oleksiy Volkov and Major General Ugor Ivanovich Famintsin.

On September 9, Menshikov was ordered to go to Ranienburg, the place, because of the education itself (to be in the Ryazan province), and, due to the mercy of rank and sign, life there is harmless, because of the unbearable glory of the capital Masks are deprived of a new one. Princess Marya was guilty of turning her hoop to the Emperor, which was close to twenty unpaid minimum incomes of the community. "I am guilty and am aware of this, I deserve punishment," Menshikov said to the officers; in a special box.

The disgraced Tsarvorets, having saved his wealth, letting his mother take the lane in Ranienburg and not consuming the hope, although he’s happy to grow up again, he’s friendly, visiting from St. Petersburg during the day, in the middle of the day, I can’t be lucky in numbers. Natov tsіkavikh drove off the trip: Menshikov bowing to his carriages on offended sides, saying goodbye to usіma with cheerful accusations. Spooky yogo, ymovіrno zvnіshnє, and inappropriate writing more and more annoyed the enemies. At Tver, it was punished to make the warts, to seal up all the speeches of the sign, and you need to do it only. Here a few boules have been found, and they know that everything has been taken into the treasury.

Mayzhe in one hour with Menshikov arriving in Ranienburg Dyisny Statsky Radnik Pleshcheev for the creation of a message about the evil and misdeeds of him.
Vіn buv of victories in the misery of Tsarevich Alexy Petrovich, father of the Emperor; in the local list of the Swedish Senate before the hour of the sickness of the Empress Katerini I; in the sixty unpaid minimum incomes of the hulks, which belong to the Duke of Holshtinsky, and in the bagatokh of the most vicarious.

Yogo was sentenced to being sent to the place of Bereziv, Tobolsk province [Bereziv is located from St. Petersburg at 4034 versts, lying at 63 degrees latitude, on a birch tree in Sosva, which flows into Ob.]. - With a husband, a decent hero, Menshikov felt a sinister virok, turning to death, saying: "My butt will serve you as an unanimous one, if you will, if you twist from an oversight, I am guilty to die!" Saying so, so dear to the lover Petrov, ale the squad of unhappy little hardness: heavy confusion and undying sleep harassed life on the road, 12 versts from Kazan.

For a few days before her death, the dawn shook, cried over grief. Sumny Menshikov prodovzhuvv on the way in the supervisor of the Lieutenant of the Guard Stepan Kryukivsky and twenty detached soldiers of the Preobrazhensky battalion. Youmu was allowed to take ten courtyards from Ranienburg; Visnacheno for utrimannya of five rubles per day. In the viddalenia of Siberia, they already knew about the fall and misdirection of the great Generalsimus. Inhabitants of Tobolsk leather day stumbled to the bank of the Irtysh, powering up: “who will be soon?

Todi s natovpu buv threw someone to brute in the blue and daughters of Menshikov. "Throw me away," he said, "don't let the pomst fall on me alone, ale, fill in the peace of my poor innocent children!" At Tobolsk, the Governor sent Menshikov to prison, by order of the Emperor, five hundred rubles. "Tsarska mercy," said the Vignan and handed him a penny, "do not bring me any coristas to the distant, wild land, because I cannot stock up on the necessary speeches here until my foal lays down."

Prokhannya yogo bula is respected: by buying a dog sokiru and іnshі know-how for felling and processing of trees and for farming; I also stocked up on a kind of fish, nets for fishing and a good amount of meat and salted ribs; Rashtu pennies vel_v to distribute to the people. On the way to Berezov, Menshikov wandered into the same hut as an officer, like a trivial trip to St. Petersburg from a long time ago to Siberia. The officer kolis buv Ad'yutant yogo and not knowing the proud, beautiful Prince of Izhora, he drew a beard with a single beard, and he had a bald casing on his own; Ale Menshikov naming his colishy pidlegly by name. "By the rank of I am to vidomy, - having energized the office of the officer, - who is it?" - "Oleksandr", - said Menshikov. - "Yakiy Oleksandr?" - shrieking angrily priyzhiy. - "Oleksandr Menshikov". - "I already know his Lightness," the officer said, "and it’s not a good idea to call me when I’m yogo." - "I don't know Menshikov?" - prodovzhuvav Vignanets. The officer glanced at the blatant don’t know yak at the god’s. Todi Menshikov taking him by the hand and moving to the window. - "Hang yourself on the rice of your great General", - having said Vin. Dovgo officer marveled at Menshikov, didn’t do it for him; nareshti so far as I know and with a podivie viguknuv: "Ah! Prince! Your saintliness, how will I come to the summons, in which I will bach you?" The Lord, who has put me on the throne of the natural greatness of man, has called into my first camp. "

Todi vignanets, having told the beaten officers all the stories, sent to the State after the death of Peter the Great, in which rank Katerina ascended the throne, as having enlisted her daughter with Peter II. “I thought, - prodzhuvav Menshikov with great zitkhannyam, - well, having secured all the people, in which bachiv only shanuvalnikov, I will calmly enjoy the fruits of my turboboots; Osterman.], More and more vicious, mittєvo pushed me into a heavy camp, in which I’m working. ), the axis of the subject of my sorrow: the people are in abundance, the stench is fueled by me for mischief, in which they did not take part! serve as a lesson, as it is necessary to tame your addictions and interconnect your bazhanya! You will go to Moscow and you will be in Dolgorukov's worries: all the power is now in the hands of you; bones for the wisdom of the minds of the Great Monarch! Say, uh, bach me on the ring road, and a restless journey, the painfulness of the local climate didn’t only weaken my health, they didn’t make me sick, but in captivity I’m enjoying freedom from the right, I don’t know the spirit, I don’t know.

Having heard the summarily the officer's answer to Petrov's love, and if Menshikov had said goodbye to him, since the merry accusations were made to the kibitka, the officer did not think he could see his tears, after seeing him off with his glances. - Investigations from the wooded svit, the middle of the Kryzhany Kestrels to Siberia, de winter, every day, these days; information about the tenth year of writing, and the pimp in three; frost reaches 40 ° with unbearable winds from the Ice Sea; in the spring, from the swampy steam, there is a thick fog that is impenetrable for the dawn; wake up also in case of strong winery-cold winters; de vlіtku specs trivayut no more than ten days; the earth, through cold nights, only a quarter of an arshin; a dream to live for one year a day for a wedding temple mountain- Menshikov in Berezov didn’t want to share it, adoring the humility and adoring his children.

If їkh in front of the tsim of weak folding ["vіdgodіvlі Danilovich", - wrote Peter the Great to Princess Menshikova.] having stayed with the help of the ministers of his little tree house on the steep birch of the Sosve rivulet; We developed a city there and took a taku sum from the pennies won, and erected a church on it in the name of the Savior, and when I was awake, I’m holding it in my hands. He called at the dzin, if he instructed the hour of the church service, corrected the uncle's seat, slept in krilas and spoke at the same time to the commoner at the head. "Blessed me, Lord," repeating Menshikov incessantly in his prayers, "as if he had conquered me єsi!" - A skinny day before the svitanka went to the shore with a wonderful view of the awakening of nature; Turn to the hut from the church, sniffing the children to read the sacred books, or giving them the stories of their life, as they wrote down the stench. Inadvertently, a priceless manuscript was added; ale Berezovsky townsman Matviy Bazhenov, who died in 1797 on the 107th of the nation, often finding them in cich busy.

Menshikov loved to roam with him і, mіzh іnshim, viznavshis to him: "Well, death is not the style of frightening him, as at the height of the great." So after spending an hour of celebrations, the Vignanets, like, kolis, Vіtav Feofan Prokopovich with the words: in Oleksandr Bachimo Peter! - what a call to the Throne of Katerina and, in front of his missed ones, mav namir will unite from the Grand Duchess Natalia Oleksiyivnya. Unleashing the triumph of Viri! In Happiness Menshikov, having transcended the thresholds of Vitality and having become a slave to his passions - in the ill-fated, having appeared as a survivor over them, having raised the offspring with an unprecedented firm spirit, we have meticulous self-determination.

Yogo's daughter, Marya, is uncomfortably in love with her. Berezov did not have any drugs. Menshikov bachiv, scho Marya was approaching the end of the earthly citizens - and getting ready to preach sorrow from children. Before the meeting was accepted: when they moved to the best light, the innocent vyazen was brought in by the daddy, who is not afraid of death. Mary died (1729): Menshikov violated the grave and himself lowered the dear remains to the ground! The hardness of a great husband has been stolen! Zroshuyuchi remains the life of my daughter, having contented herself with a thought, soon to come to her; at once, with a dark light of rib'yachy fat, like a fire in a yogo khatin, having prepared a trumpet from a cedar tree [In Berezov, a part of a cedar fossil, called in a long time ago by the tamnichi, which was worshiped by the Ostyaks for an hour.]; іziavіl bazhannya, who was praised by bіlya Marіya, in dressing gowns, shoes and in a quilted cap, wearing yaku todі; a rite of passage, the Church is imposed, and in the midst of a glimpse of mobility, seeing from the cold, cold water, as I live in a small number

Nareshti gave a fatal hour! Winner of his children and saying to him: "I see, my friends, that I will pass from the whole time of life for ever. I’m in her, if I’m before the face of the Lord, I’m guilty of being in front of the Lord, I’m guilty about the hour I’ve spent in the misplaced! Yogo! Easier b I would be wandering with you, as if the thought would not have lodged me, if I could turn you there, de vice triumph over garlic, de heart do not preserve the primordial innocence, embellish your head. I'll be in Berezov. Maybe bootie, middle marnot great light more than once you will be shkoduvati about the tute boggling! Seelie to kill me. Come, my children, so I bless you! "- Menshikov lifted his hand, and didn’t even have a chance to let it go — he sank down, his head fell on the pillow, the children were dying, and a little bit the rest of them went on the 22nd of 1729.

Youmu bulo only 56 years old from the people. Three arshins of frozen earth took in their nadra the remains of the Kolishny Ruler of the Empire, the Duke of Izhora, Generalisimus of the Russian Church, ten fathoms from the bank of the Sosve River. Nini on that mice hang an earthy ramp, chiselled with wood grains In 1825, I instructed the Berezovsky Governor G. Andrєєv, who was overly rosy and diligent: to see the story of Petrov’s love, which was a biography of what I’ve learned in the young years and having taken memory. G. Andrv took my words literally: he asked old-timers and all the time about Kozak Ivana Shakhov (mav todі 57 rocks): he is the capital of Berezovsky townsman Matviy Bazhenov, who is the 17th son of the Roads, often descended into the grave of the Menshiks in the 17th century ; it’s located on the slope, bilya of the old church, ten fathoms from the bank of the Sosve rivulet, you can see there is still a surplus of stone foundation.

The governor took up the right: rallied a lot of land on that month (April 30, 1825); Then, having punished the rubati with the sokirs in a depth of three arshins, the earth does not freeze in the birch only for a quarter of an arshin: there was a trun, zaddovzhki in a fathom, upholstered with a worm-tree with a cloth, with a nice gimmick at the viglyadi of a chrest on a dakhu. Yogo was seen; they were angry with the ice, having curled up the quiet of the deceased by an inch; They gave a shove: lying in a truny, high-growth, artistic, with a bent beard, hairless, thick eyebrows, all teeth were spared, as if they slept in a big sleep, and in a dressing gown, my head and on the mountain there is a vine, in green gostrich shoes on his feet with majestic pidbora, vuzky below.

Prince Oleksandr Danilovich Menshikov is two arshins, twelve vershoks, two vershoks mensh of Peter the Great; stringy by itself; Rose and ambition were imagined in the guise of yogo with fancy farbs. I have a good laugh; perceived by the state of mind and cunning [Menshikov did not know how to read, not write, and vivchivsya only disgustingly write vasne im'ya; Even in the presence of people, they did not know about those, having prikhovuvv their ignorance and showing a viglyad, not reading a paper. If they were vicious with powerful orders from the victorious majestic sums and in the small snacks, they were true: well, you didn’t know how to read or write, not knowing the serpent written by him. - Vilboa.]; having risen in an astonishing manner, before the hour of his own meaning, about the last year and earlier, having eaten at nine, slept about the tenth year; not submitting any inquiries before the first day; loving davat pisnі obіdi; having adorned oneself with diamond orders and through a weak health, they were charged in front of the guards regiments, on the richly tidied up horses, supervising the general, in a common brocade zhupan on the sable farm, with such cuffs; thinking about polishing cloth factories in Russia falling asleep in Yamburg kryshtalevi backwaters; Buv than with the Earthlings; blasphemy until quiet, because they didn’t want to be smart, didn’t want to be smart, because they didn’t want to go back to anybody; perelіduvav pіvnykh; Buv domineering, vengeful, rude, hard-hearted, greedy to the side.

[For Menshikov's instructions in Siberia, it was known from a new one: 1) nine million rubles in bank receipts of the London and Amsterdam banks and in the latest statutory acts; 2) a choice of millions of rubles of sale; 3) diamants and large sums of money for a sum of millions of rubles; 4) 45 pounds of gold in bars and 60 pounds in small vessels and stuffing. There are three basic services of one, and 24 dozen leather containers, spoons, knives and saws. The first in London, the other in Augsburg, the third in Hamburg. Ponad tsiy Menshikov, having acquired for himself a quarter of the average service in Paris, in 1727, the fate and the object of hanging 35.500 fimkiv.]; enduring often beatings from Peter the Great!

Ale Menshikov, with all his weaknesses, will lose himself a great people and I have the right to the rossiyans, as a warrior of the life of the unforgettable Monarch and an impenetrable commander Deviz yogo on the coat of arms of the attack: virtute duce, somite fоrtuna; that is, the valor of the guidebook; Happiness fellow.]

tse vidoma picture V. Surikov "Menshikov in Birch".

Favorite and lover of Peter Pershoy, the all-powerful prince Oleksandr Danilovich Menshikov, by the will of Peter II and the princes of Dolgoruky, will merge all the ranks, the city and the land and services at once from April 11, 1728 in Siberia.

Along the road At Kazan, Darin Menshikov's squad died, not having taken the difficult road and fell off.

For the sake of the ear, Menshikov lives in prison for his childhood, while he himself has stayed in a wooden house for the help of his ancestors. In the power of the Menshikov, he saved the spirit of the spirit, prayed profusely, erected a church for the tree, and served as a clerk in him. Winning the blow is an important blow of the dolі, standing up and not getting angry.

And the kids? In the picture of the image - the elder Marya 17 rocks, Oleksandra 16 rocks and Oleksandr! 4 rock_v.

Yak was ready їхnya share?

Marya (26 .12. 1711 - 26.12.1729), the eldest daughter of Oleksandr Danilovich. Vona has become a rosemary potato in Menshikov's fight for possession.

If Catherine I went to the throne after the death of Peter I, and Menshikov ruled Russia, Marya Bula was tied for the saint of the great hetman of Lithuania Peter Sapega. Petro Sapega Buv senior for Marya for 10 years, loving її and 5 years of checks, if you are younger, left in 1726, didn’t go to the hands of Peter and Mary. Ale ... in

Ochikuvanni fun and after the death of Katerini, the plan of Menshikov changed, and even thought about the death of his daughter as Empress, having seen his deputy for Peter II, onuk of Peter I and sin Oleksiy Petrovich.

Peter II became Emperor on May 6, 1727, and his enlistment from Mary went on for 25 May.

In 1727, Menshikov was seriously ill, and the Dolgoruky princes took over the Emperor's life, and if Menshikov showed up at the court for ailments, he wondered if the hour passed before the next check

opal ...... The long-armed yogo "sank".

On the 8th of the week of planting for homework, after the messages to his mother Ranenburg, and in April 1728, the messages were sent to Siberia, all titles, privileges and all myna were added.

On 12 (23) leaf fall in 1729, Menshikov died at 56 rock times, and a month later, on the day of his people, Maria died at the age of 18.

In the picture, you can sit in the foreground, wrapped in a fur coat ... Blide, denouncing the sum, I'm sorry for bringing my evil life, crying without tears ...

After Menshikov's death, children are allowed to turn to the capital, if Anna Ivanivna has already gone to the throne.

Oleksandr was at that time 19 years old, and it was not a bargain that they saw the turnover in favor of Gustav Biron, brother of Ernst Biron, favorite of Anni Ioanivnya.

In 1736, Oleksandra's birth died, but Menshikov's birth was the same.

Sin Menshikova, Oleksandr (1714-1764) was lucky, having taken part in the Russian-Turkish war, for the speed of being promoted to the rank of captain-lieutenant. He died in the rank of general-in-chief.

Yogo onuk the clear-noble prince Volodymyr Oleksandrovich (1814-1893), the general of the cavalry of offspring, did not surrender to the whole family of Menshikov according to the number of lines.

Remaining of Menshikov's land according to his life line Ivan Mikolayovich Koreysha (1865-1919), for his merits, received a call to his ancestor's name and became the name of Menshikov-Koreysha. He died in the rock of Hromadyanskoy Viyny.

The share of Oleksandr Danilovich Menshikov, who killed him with one of the most famous nobles, has lost a lot

Peter's Hours, a clear noble prince and a courtier to the throne, the ale of power, the intrigues once again threw him to the very bottom of the suspension - from "brude - to riches" and navpaki ...

Menshikov, with all the testimony to Peter I, lay down to the clan of the great "khabarniks" of the sovereign lane, for which he repeatedly punished and nailed Peter, if he wished to be victorious, who were true to them, how to "steal everything."

Once upon a time, the tsar, in the knowledge of the patience of the general unscrupulousness, although he saw the decree of any official, who wants to buy something, it is necessary to buy a motorcycle.

Todi "the eye of the sovereign", Prosecutor General Yaguzhinsky stood up and said: "If your greatness wants to be king alone, without servants and children?

Polamania of the whole of Menshikov’s homeland would be paid for in his struggle for power, but Menshikov himself lost in history as a friend and ally of Peter I “vikhovanets of Peter's nest”, “mein herzbruder” (my heart's name brother).
