Title	Account of the Preservation of the [sic] of Jesus in the Russian Empire
Date	Early 19th century
Level	Item
Description	72 paged anonymous manuscript, transcribed in September, 1828. The flyleaf is inscribed: "Revd Mother New Hall Septm. 1828." The original document, however, seems to have been written in 1823 because the preface mentions that the suppression took place 50 years ago. The preface also mentions that this account was prepared thirty years earlier (1793) by men personally involved, with the aid of a German volume with the title Important Information cerning the Society of Jesus in Alba Russia (Leipzig, 1793) and Apologiae pro Societate Iesu in Alba Russia (Amsterdam [vere Italy, perhaps Rome], 1793).
