American Red Cross - Headquarters & Buildings - American Red Cross in North Russia. The largest building in Archangel is a great prison, belonging to the old regime, when prisons were a very vital and important matter in the business of government. It was emptied by the Bolsheviks when they arrived in Archangel, and it is now again filled with Bolsheviks, being used as a barracks for American troops. The tallest man in the group is the American Assistant Provost Marshal, Lt. Wron of Detroit, who was in charge of the prison. Next to him is Lt. E.W. Hallowell of Los Angeles
