The Count told me, however, that this de Grailly wrote many denunciations to Russia on the subject of me and my kingdom, and that he had therefore arrested him and sent him to Russia. But when we returned, de Grailly, hearing of this, secretly escaped from the convoy on the road and came to us together with Choglokov. De Grailly himself avers in writing that he did not compose slanders on me and my country of his own accord, but at the orders of Count Todtleben, and that the Count continually acted contrary to the instructions which had been given to him…” The text of de Grailly's letter to Erekle is given by Cagareli, op. cit., i, pp. 450–1.
