  Chessical: From the e3e5 wesbsite:

The fate of E.I.Talvik (1881-1943?) was dramatic. As an educated musician he served in the Finnish regiment of Life Guards in 1915-1917. It was enough for him to be arrested after the revolution and sentenced to be shot but he managed to run away.

Hard time led E.Talvik to Caucasia where he was brought to tribunal again this time in the Red Army. After escaping and getting demobilized he taught music in the Kutaisi technical school. Later on he moved to Tbilisi where he became the chess champion of the city. But the war against Germany began and Eduard Talvik like other people of German blood was banished to the Turkmenian town of Chardzhou where he finally disappeared without a trace. ...Chess has played a deadly role in his fate. Eduard Eduardovich played in correspondence chess tournaments. When he was arrested in 1938 as a German spy he was charged with crime of giving secret information to the enemies by sending the moves. The sentence “10 years without the right of correspondence” meant immediate death by shooting. E.E.Talvik was 33 years old.
