Different representations of the past can be explained a numerous amount of times due to what people witness, hear, and learn. The events on 21st-22nd of January, 1905, led Russia to revolutionize it’s whole country; from modern technology, to economic factors bearing in work for all (as most of Russia was working class, around 83 percent in total) and education, for all to learn about the world and Russia itself not under any rule of a revolutionary.

The evidence in each three accounts, Gapon, The New York Times (23rd, Jan, 1905) and John Hay have brought and raised different notions and events portrayed on the day.

Gapon was the leader of the crowd of workers, workers wives, workers children, students, and the general public of this parade. Women walked in front of him as a form of protection and body guarding his, if anything where to happen to him those women would lay down their lives for him. Police did not interfere with the procession as of yet, but escorted them to the gates of the Winter Palace with their heads respecting the religious emblems displayed. The crowd grew more patriotic for a more dramatic aspect of the parade; this was for seeking a

The last account was of John Hay, Secretary of State for Washington. In his account, things like Gapon’s criminal record, his image perceived by the followers of him, come into place in a different perspective. His follower’s took him as a Demy-God, rarely seeing him and what his done, rather standing up with his voice and saying what is needed for workers. He is also accused of being a renegade priest, thorough-paced revolutionist, and a deceiver. Gapon deceived the workingmen into a belief that a purpose was to aid their condition. The other thought of such a massive group was for them to capture the Emperor and hold him as hostage; a threatening way of getting what he wanted. As the Tsar had eliminated most of the revolutionary groups in Russia, he could have arrested Gapon instead of bringing such mass of people to raise a threatening voice. (How could it been perceived by the Tsar and Grand Duke of talking calmly, face to face with thousands and one man?). One important aspect that Gapon should have considered was not go as threatening, instead to take a group of well formed workmen that were well represented and could speak for themselves not under one other’s voice. John Hays account brought a good point of action, a few Palace guards couldn’t control such a large group and so the last thing to do was to call in the Army. The crowd did throw comments and hustling the officers. The crowd was told to disperse, and were told by guards as if it was with emotion by some of them, possibly knowing what the outcome would have been. (Moral? Was not a killer but a soldier?) The attacks at first weren’t as bad as the sol
