Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of 1918 Ion Mihalache was among the members of a special group of 94 schoolteachers and professors sent to Bessarabia by the Government in Iaşi in order to mitigate the anti-Romanian attitudes and to smooth the way to a possible closeness to Romania. Various details are known within the Romanian historiography regarding the period when Mihalache was on the left side of river Prut and they were presented in some papers appeared after 1990. Through our text we take a historiographical insight of the activity carried out in Bessarabia based also on recently identified documentary information which can extend as well as enrich the already existing perspective within the literature dedicated to the Union of the Moldavian Democratic Republic with the Romanian Kingdom.
