 Most of us know the great Russian Poet Alexander Pushkin but not all heard about his uncle Nikita Kozlov. Meanwhile, they shared an amazing relationship. Once Pushkin arrived at his old Lyceum friend. History is silent on what happened between him and Nikita, but comrade hit Nikita. The guy complained about it to Pushkin. Pushkin was angry and caused a friend to a duel for the offense of a serf. Nikita also left in debt. One day, when the police came to the house to look for forbidden poems, Nikita is ordered to bring them. He refuses, since his master can put them in jail. Officer threatens to kill Nikita ( the murder of a serf at that time was not considered a crime). Nikita goes in the room and brings a bunch of nonsense notes asking to buy milk, children's drawings, bills for electricity. The police left with nothing
