The day after: "Enfin il y a bien peu de chose a faire a mes planches, et j'espere que dans un jour ce sera termine. "J'ai beaucoup de choses a te dire mais ce sera pour nos bonnes causeries intimes. Je voyagerai toute la nuit de vendredi afin d'arriver samedi dans la matinee.
Dans ces moments-la il me semble que je realise chaque metre, chaque centimetre de l'effroyable distance qui nous separe. Je suis oblige de lutter fortement contre ces idees qui finiraient par me rendre malade. "Je dois maintenant aller au train; a demain donc." "WEST LODGE. Vendredi.
What fierce broils and bloody fights did these streets witness centuries ago! There in the Marche au Vendredi, a large square of old-fashioned houses, with a statue of Jacques van Artevelde, fifteen hundred corpses were strewn in a quarrel between the hostile guilds of fullers and brewers; and here, later, Alva set blazing the fires of the Inquisition.
In January, 1868, he left again for London, and felt but little inconvenience on the way and during his stay. Knowing that I should be anxious, he formed the habit of sending me frequent short pencil notes, to say how he was. I give here a few of them: "LONDRES. Vendredi soir. "J'ai ete tres occupe aujourd'hui au musee Britannique. Demain j'irai voir des expositions.
Ainsi crois que, loin de souffrir des devoirs que je me suis imposes, j'y trouve la plus profonde satisfaction, et que je me trouve plus respectable que si je ne faisais rien." "WEST LODGE. Vendredi.

"They are all marvellous, and that is all we can say, for no expressions could give the truth about them." They were never tired of running down there to the Marché du Vendredi, until it became a regular question every day at dinner, "Well, what more have you discovered at the Musée Plantin?" And old Mr. King would often answer, for he was as interested as the young people, "Marvellous things."

It also extends beyond the Lys to the little island on which is situated the church of St. Michael, and again to the islet formed between the Lieve and the Lys, which contains the château of the Counts and the Palace Ste. Pharailde.
It is pleasant also to think of him among the five and twenty Amis du Vendredi dining together at little wineshops on mutton and cheese and wine with an occasional pâté given as a treat by some member in funds for the moment. He was not above enthusiasm for "un certain pâté de maquereau de Calais" and he was fond of the theater and of all shows where animals were to be seen.
