In 1870 (according to other sources - in 1871) Pyotr Fedoseevich went abroad with his wife, settled in France. Since the mid-70s was considered an emigrant. Pyotr Fedoseevich, as an activist of revolutionary emigration, did not belong to any of its groups, but his brochures and articles were consistent with the general spirit of the "People’s Will" program (they were repeatedly reprinted, distributed in Russia, and translated into European languages). In 1879 and 1881, at the insistence of the Russian embassy, Pyotr Fedoseevich was expelled from France, lived in Geneva, then in Genoa and Nice. In May 1898 he was arrested in Florence (where he was one of the editors of the newspaper "La Difesa" - "Defense") as a "zealous distributor of socialist ideas". However, in 1917 he returned to his homeland.
