Specialist Notes
"Dear Bettoliere Here I am, but I assure you that I prefer Torre if only for the coletto I have to surround. But I don't need to complain. I'm circuit enough and played too much ... badly at Covent Garden. Tomorrow with a Fiat I will go to the Derby, the great famous races ... I realized that I wrote double - at least I was drunk! I am devoid of ideas it will be albione that with its tired and a bit suffocating heat ... but it is better to stop (.. .) PS when I arrived in Milan I saw Elvira. She is in bad shape again! (...). "
