______________________________________________

"My dear Julie, we are ready to leave tomorrow morning at 7.50, we have me and Lucien a round trip and return to Calais. From there we will take our tickets for London. We get there at 5 am - I received your letter this morning. I am surprised that Bassinat did not answer, I will write to him.

What you tell me about Titit is very boring but I think it is still very child to think seriously, he likes to play, you have to be a little patient not to spoil the future-have we not all been the same. If it does not hurt more than joys you have to wait. - However, it must be scolded a little and try that he does the task he promised to do. Tell them that they will be rewarded if they behave well. I have nothing more to add.

I am at Amélie with whom we are going to have lunch. Me and Lucien we kiss you. Amélie makes you say many things. C. Pissarro. »»
