The lady who furnishes the above interesting facts, gives also in her
paper other most quaint and valuable particulars of these strange
visitors. She had spent much time in gleaning all that could be got
together, and this proved no easy matter, for, although the Russian
occupation of the Channel Islands occurred but 97 years ago, there is
little obtainable record remaining.

I have somewhat fully inserted notes to show how Russian coins became
current in the Channel Islands, because this has puzzled many.

At the present time all English money is commonly current throughout the
group of islands.
