Bold statements[edit]

The last paragraph contains quite a few bold statements and contradicts few basic facts:

Ivan IV the Terrible at the time was 9 years old and did not yet rule, so it is unlikely he sent Petrok to Segezh
Some notable historians think that Peter Fryazin in this case is not the same person as Petrok
The papers clearly state Peter's own words about the reason for his escape (and contain nothing about the chambers :-)
- He was promised to work for 3 or 4 years, already worked for 11 years and was kept "by force"
- After the death of Elena Glinskaya there was lawlessness

The easiest way around these problems is to delete the last paragraph in its entirety. Dimawik (talk) 06:23, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
