Russian Nobles Travel Belgrade in Ragged Splendor
Belgrade, June 21. Nearly 500 of Russia’s former high nobility have reached the capital, sent by American Red Cross relief from Salonica. Grand dukes, counts and princesses, in tattered furs, mingle with commoners as they seek meals and shelter, many stripped of all but luxurious cloaks. A countess, once celebrated in Petrograd, appeared barefoot with an ermine cloak, barefoot yet wearing a coat seeking aid amid the warm sun.
