revenge his Brothers death, who was killed by an Eminent Perfonage,
whofe name was lurte ^yilexoVuz. in the year 1665. The

the Polish Warrs , under the command of the before mentioned Bojur,

From hence he took his way direftly for which he took in and

for the VFolga by the way committing many Infolencies , plundering
and finking all the fmall Shipping , wafting and depopulating of
Cities and Villages , and uiing the People very inhumanly if they
would not refolve to joyn in that Rebellion. From hence he went to
the City Terku , and fo onwards to the Bounds of where he alfo
