Egor Murlychev - Rostov Bolshevik underground fighter

On March 11 (February 26, Old Style), 1919, the White Guard court handed down the death sentence to the head of the Rostov Committee of the Bolshevik Party, Georgy (Yegor) Murylychev.

Yegor Murlychev was arrested in December 1918, when the underground printing press collapsed. For three months the guy was beaten, he was abused with exquisite torture, subjected to unbelievable torture and abuse.

The young man's head turned gray, his face was bruised, haggard and aged. Only the eyes were still burning young and bold, burning with an unquenchable belief in the inevitability of victory, in the triumph of the great ideas of the Bolshevik Party. The executioners failed to snatch a word of confession from him.

Letter of Murlycheva from prison, transferred out:

"Comrades, I read your leaflet. My blood curdled, my strength increased. I have no doubt that you will continue the work begun. I will die with firm confidence that you will also go to the end, to complete victory. I wish you success. Long live  Soviet power, long live the workers' army, long live the Russian Communist Party of Bolsheviks. I am a little sick. Say hello to everyone.

Yegor Murlychev"

On the wall of prison cell number 13, he scrawled: "Comrades, I am dying for the cause of the revolution. Continue my work. Egor Murlychev." And when the escorts came for him, he made a hasty note in the margins of the prison prayer book: "Dear comrades. Today I was dying for the idea of ​​the Bolsheviks. The only thing I ask is continue my cause. Egor."

The faithful comrades of Murlychev for the underground work decided to set up an ambush in the Balabanovskaya grove, where the executions were carried out, and to rescue Egor when he was led to death. But this became known to the white counterintelligence, and a day before the appointed time, Comrades Murlychev and  Vyazenets were led by the White Guards into the ravine beyond the New Settlement, where they were hacked to pieces.

Thus, the short but bright life of George Alexandrovich Murlychev, a fiery revolutionary, a loyal son of the people, was cut short.






One hundred years later, on the eve of March 11, 2019, the comrades-in-arms of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (AUCPB) honor the memory of a revolutionary underground worker in Rostov-on-Don. Flowers were brought to the street named after Murlychev, a “memorial of memory” was created.

The name of Yegor Murlychev will not be forgotten at the next round of history, no matter how they try to forget his name, and silenced by the current bourgeois authorities of the city. His feat today inspires the modern Bolsheviks for new battles against the world of capital.
