Curious shipwrecked men

Japan, Inc., Summer, 2005

Concerning the recent arrival of Russians in Hokkaido, near La Perous Straits, a later report says that they were one Russian and 16 Turks, being convicts who have deserted from Saghalien. They reached Wakanal on the 18th and are being treated by the Japanese authorities as shipwrecked men. They are carrying with them fowling pieces and sword canes. From THE JAPAN GAZETTE, June 20th, 1905
