B. says it is only Friday; but I am positive I have had three cold baths since we left Ober-Ammergau, which we did on Wednesday morning. If it is only Friday, then I have had two morning baths in one day. Anyhow, we shall know to-morrow by the shops being open or shut. We travelled from Oberau with a tourist agent, and he told us all his troubles.
L. are coming, and something of their plans. At least how long they will stay in London. Won't you be so good as to tell them this and give them my address? Really yours, J.C.

These people on the stage at Ober-Ammergau are not lay figures, mere abstract representations of the virtues or the opposite. They live, breathe and act just as if they were actors in a French or Russian novel. That is the great difference.
