It is difficult to associate his personality and this impression of kindness and gentle simplicity with what has occurred here in connection with these purges and shootings of the Red Army generals, and so forth.”
—Joseph Davies (1876–1958)

The hills and waters o’er,
When a band of exiles moored their bark
On the wild New England shore.”
