Odessa, 1838. During the construction of the Grand Stairs, which later became known as Potemkin Stairs, the body of a deceased worker was found. It happened on the eve of Orthodox Easter, as well as Pesach, and dirty rumors spread around the city, threatening pogrom. Governor-General Vorontsov called an urgent meeting to prevent unrest.
