A. Ya. Pehrna. Funeral word by a representative of the Geological Circle of Mining Institute students

Abstract

Throughout the last year, A. Ya. Pehrna was the chairman of the Geological Circle. This Self-Education Circle arose in 1910 and once worked actively, but when in 1914 many of the participants joined the active army, the life of the Circle, which had been established over the years, was interrupted for almost a year and a half. Only A. Ya.’s exceptional energy and his exceptional personal charm were able to revive the Circle and bring it back to life in January of this year.
