Today this is a rather small village called Chavusy (in Belarussian)
and situated just to the southeast of Mahiljou (Mogilev). In 1911 it
was called Chausy (no Chausskii) and was a relatively large village.
In those days it was the districtcenter in the Chausy district (uyezd)
in the Mogilev guberniya.
