— " Leave of Absence. " 132 PRINCESS TARAKANOVA.
a Russian grand-duchess. She even went so far as to declare that, recollecting her childhood, she, on the strength of circumstances, believed herself to be the grand-duchess of whom mention was made in the will of the Emperor Peter I. , which, she said, she had found among her papers, and which was all in favour of the late Empress Elizabeth, and by the will of Elizabeth made in favour of her daughter. A copy of this interrogation was sent to Mos...cow to the Empress Ekaterina, who was very indignant at the impu- dence of the captive, and especially when she found a letter addressed to herself, signed " Eliza- beth. " "Well, that woman is a fieffee canaille" 1 exclaimed Ekaterina, crumpling the letter in her hands, after having read it. Potemkin was at that time sitting in the study of the empress. " Of whom are you speaking? " he asked.
" Oh ! always about the same vagrant, Ba- tiushka; about that Italian vagabond. " Potemkin, — who really pitied Tarakanova, for two reasons : first, because she was a woman ; and then, because she was the prey of Orloff, to him hateful, — began to speak in her favour.
