I saw an entry in Lovaina's day-book on the table: "Germani to Fany 3 feathers." This was a charge made by Atupu against a Dane for three cocktails. He took his meals at Mme. Klopfer's restaurant. Her first name is Fanny, and Atupu thinks all men not English, French, or Americans, are Germans; so she identified the Dane as the German who went to Fanny's for his meals.
