Summary: "Lippincott's Magazine of Popular Literature and Science, Volume 15, No. 87" is a collection of articles and stories published during the mid-19th century. This issue, dated March 1875, features a variety of pieces ranging from illustrated narratives to essays on social commentary, including "An Escape From Siberia" which discusses the plight and resilience of Polish political exiles. The opening of this magazine presents a serialized account by Rufin Piotrowski, detailing his harrowing escape from Siberian exile.

The narrative vividly chronicles his adventures through various European countries while maintaining his disguise, his apprehension during interactions with strangers, and the eventual complications leading to his arrest and transfer to a harsh prison environment.
