Gritsko Lavrenko - item horseshoe - 2 rubles; regimental clerk - Tr; to the regimental centurion - gold (20 kopecks), subscription - thaler; to the clerk of the centenary - a strip of mashaga (15 k.), etc. d. In general, according to Gorlenka’s report, it was revealed that all the newly registered Cossacks in the regimental hundred of the Prilutsk regiment were 105 people, of which 53 were entered into the computer, according to Gorlenka’s mafan, correctly, and 52 people were returned to the embassy.

In general, the transition to the Cossacks was difficult; It happened that the highest administration itself stretched out its hand for the Cossacks who wanted it, apparently appeasing them with “Dats,” and yet nothing could be agreed to with the ruler, who, not wanting to lose the subject, used all means so as not to let him out of his hands. So the Pospolitan of the village of Nekrasov (Hlukhiv. u.), who belonged to the son of the Hlukhiv archpriest, Borzakovsky, Trofim Bury began to look for Cossacks in 1724. As he had “corrupted” the rulers of the general chancellery, he obtained from them such a decree to Borzakovsky: it was ordered before himself that Trofim Bury should find himself in the Pospolita taglosti, but since he is in the Cossack rank of the Cossack ‘serving his service, always desiring to serve his imperial majesty, for the sake of leaving him Bury, in the Cossack rank, we propose to the Nekrasov ruler for the first execution, that he leave Bury and his ground in .pokof, Since he must be a Cossack of the Glukhovsky hundreds.

Two years after this, Bury’s wife wrote to the general office that Borzakov, in spite of the decree, had insulted them and ruined them, and this year, 1727, in your camp, he caught a fish, took it from the snokosov sfno, chopped it up and also my husband, took it, locked it in rooms and four or two to secure his citizenship, he forced him, and on the 6th day of August, he beat him mercilessly with his remnants and beat him half to death,” so my relative’s blessing brought him into the courtyard, barely alive... When saFdetvsh, Bor: the forge confirmed all this, adding that “he did not neglect the decree, since he had two decrees under the same general kaptselyarsh, so that Brown would be his subject..." 79°) The difficulty of transitioning to the Cossacks forced the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth to turn primarily to the settlements.

We are already primitive - like the powers, in their struggle for poslushenstvo (customary allegiance) with the taxing peasants, they reached the point where it was most useful to survive the old ones. A 79) Arch. Mlre. Code., LR 155. arch cry NIbannee kyyy NI yy peasants from their osfdlosti and zamphivat them with new, useful ones, who, out of extremes, agreed to any poslushenstvo (customary allegiance).

So, the residents of the village of Khmelyovka complained that the ruler was harassing them with incompetent work and extortions, in fact, the idea was that the peasants would disperse to the settlements, and their courtyards and lands would remain in favor of the sovereign, in order to attract new subordinates. ‘8°}) So, as we have already said, insignificant powers did this, without having any personal influence on the administration, connections with the help of which it would be possible to keep the peasants in an irrevocable state. From the ruling powers, the Ukhoati peasants. the Tories acted, mostly against their will; It was not difficult for such powers as Grechany to keep their peasants in complete dependence, and for us it was indifferent whether the taxable ones served them poslushenstvo (customary allegiance) or the useful ones. But this same power of such powers often made their subjects unbearable, forcing them to abandon their homesteads and seek happiness in the settlements...

The former peasant Gorlenko, the same one who produced information about the new Cossacks of the Prilutsk regiment, wrote to Galagach: “I inform your honor that last Tuesday, when I went to my home near Zafzd, immediately Zazdovsk came with the servant of P. Yakima Gorlenok, having caught me, they began to call me to Pan Yakam; and as soon as I approached him, he began to tyrannically beat me because I had moved from his village Zafzda to your lordship. And having beaten me, he ordered me to be tied up and, putting me on a cart, they transported me 30) See above, page 61.

E me in Zayzd; but after carrying a little, Pan Yakim ordered the voyat - untie him, he said, and let him go, so that he does not die from the beating. They let me go, but the horse with the cart and the scythe was taken from me... I ask your lordship to fight for me, so that Yakimt, if I remain alive from this beating, would not touch me and return my horse with the cart.
