[[circled]] 159 [[/circled]] is a very low price - the average coming down to $6, per costume. I bought everything in the shop - armor wigs swords - masks - hats - robes - mantles spears shields - as well as small props - and the 750 costumes. Filled the motor with things needed at once in Coblenz. The English have been trying to buy the lot - and I had no sooner completed the deal, when a lot of them came in. - 3 great trucks will go up to-morrow and transport everything here - I wonder if 3 will be enough. After lunch we started back and greatly enjoyed the trip and the beautiful scenery, and a perfect day. No Corinna - and I suspect that the delay at Metz, made them change their minds - and go back to Paris - So I will go myself to-morrow as there is not much more for me to do this visit. Thursday 21 Left Coblenz, at 10.30 this morning by train - and arrived 5 hours late in Paris on Wednesday 22 Corinna - home as I expected her to be - having had another wonderful trip - and seeing Verdun and spending the night in the Citadelle - a very rare privilege Everything going smoothly at the office. - Mr Richards gone away, and we shall greatly miss him
