“Сверх того еще вычитали за все: и за баню, и за освещение каморок, и за уголья для самовара; с обитателей каморок брали плату поголовно, так что за каждого ребенка в семье приходилось платить.”

In addition, everything was charged for: including the bathhouse, and the lighting of the chambers, and the samovar's charcoals. The payment was collected from absolutely all chamber tenants, so that it was necessary to pay for every child in a family.
