Nuns
I thought they housed really vicious political criminals in that Inner prison... Here they are, those vicious criminals. First of all, here are three elderly women. Two of them are former nuns. One of them is imprisoned for making bed-quilts. The other - for acquiring a white goat. The third woman was a collective farmer. One rainy day she complained of schiatica and added that when her husband had been mobilised during the First War she, being a wife of a soldier had privileges, but now, when all four of her sons were at war, they forced her to work despite the illness. The next day she was arrested and for eight months they kept inquiring who had taught her to agitate against Stalin and for Nicolas II.
