Hello!

Could a list member tell me the meaning of

"[Mr so and so] uvolen ... dlya sobstvennykh nadobnostey ot 'nizhe ni san na
go chi ma' vpred' na odin god"

(if correctly deciphered), hand-written on an Ukaz allowing a Moscow
merchant of foreign extraction to travel for a year thoughout the Russian
Empire in the late 19th century?

Best regards

Philippe FRISON
