Chapter XXIX
I send a despatch stating that I accept Baron Hirsch's price; but stipulate, first, to exhibit the picture in Warsaw, etc. For the sending of despatches and other needs I borrow money in the institution. It is given without hesitation. Everything goes as if on oil. In "The Kite" and "The Courier" appears my biography, in which, however, there is not one word of truth; but as Ostrynski says, "How can that concern me?"
