Globa, Ivan Yakovlevich

Ivan Globa (? - 1791 ) - the last clerk of the Zaporizhzhya army ( 1762 - 1775 ).

According to the history of the city of Pologi, stored in the city museum, Globa was originally from the current region of Pologi - Gulyaipole.

He was distinguished by an outstanding mind, knowledge and sharpness, so he was known as the most intelligent Cossack in Sich . Initially served as a clerk in Zaporozhye transportation and in palanques .

In 1762, he was selected as a military clerk and in the same year traveled with a cat-chief ataman Grigory Fedorov to Petersburg for military affairs. He also composed the speech that was delivered by the Zaporizhzhya deputation to Catherine II in Moscow on September 9, 1762, when she congratulated her on her accession to the throne, and made a favorable impression on the Empress (published in Russky Vestnik 1840, II, 163).

In 1765 he again traveled to St. Petersburg with a deputation from the Cossacks.

In 1770 he took part in the Turkish war and in 1771 received a gold medal on the St. Andrew’s ribbon . He remained in office until the destruction of Sich, for 10 years ^{[to clarify ]} , which until then “had never happened”.

On June 4, 1775, Sich fell: the troops of Lieutenant General Pyotr Tekeli surrounded her and Tekeli demanded the ataman Kalnyshevsky , Globe and the military judge Golovaty . Upon his appearance, they were taken under guard, and then for "daring deeds" and "treacherous violence" according to the Highest Confirmed Report of May 14, 1776, Prince Potemkin Kalnishevsky, Globa and Golovaty were imprisoned; their property was described for the satisfaction of loyal subjects, demolishing the riot of the Cossacks without resistance. Globe was assigned half-day maintenance per day from the sequestered Zaporizhzhya estate.

Imprisonment was strict. At the request of Potemkin, the synod indicated that “these prisoners should be kept without exile from the monasteries and removed not only from correspondence, but also from all treatment by strangers”. Globa was exiled to the Turukhansky monastery, where he died in 1791, before September 7; after his death, money and some property remained, the register of which was compiled on September 7, 1791; the property went to his niece, but she left the money at the monastery ^[1] .
