What is the name of this place? The record says Kamenets-Podolskiy gubernia (province), Balta uezd (district), but I cannot make out the selo (village) name. According to the 1897 census in Odessa, it is the birthplace of Pinkus Vol'fov Shukhat.

Балтов. у. (Балтский уезд) - Balta uezd
Кам.-Подоль г. (Каменец-Подольская губерния) - Kamenets-Podolian Governorate - official name is Podolian Governorate (or province)

The way it's written, the village might be called Pavoreil, Pavorepl, Pavorenl, but none of these make sense in Russian and they are searchable in Google either.
I wasn't able to find anything similar in a few available lists of Balta Uezd.
