person
Mikhaila
also: Михаилы, Mikhaila
The source of the gossip -- "to judge by what Mikhaila says" -- about Kiseleva's story being sent off to Vladimir Petrovich; evidently a household servant or go-between in the Kiselev/Chekhov circle, not otherwise identified in the corpus. Distinct from the fictional Prince Mikhaila Dmitrich of "Nachalnik Stantsii."
Reading notes
- To M. V. Kiseleva, 3 February 1888. Moscow. §5 Mikhaila
The source of the gossip Chekhov is reacting to -- "to judge by what Mikhaila says" -- evidently a household servant or go-between in the Kiselev circle who reported that Kiseleva had sent her story to Vladimir Petrovich rather than through Chekhov; not otherwise identified in the corpus.
