"These are the rooms of the Baron Rothschild when he comes here always in the summer--with nine horses and nine servants--the Baron Rothschild of Vienna."I assured her that we did not know the Baron, but that should make no difference. We would not ask her to reduce the price on account of a little thing like that.
She did not quite grasp this idea, but hoped that we would not find the pension too dear at a dollar and fifty-seven and a half cents a day each, with a little extra for the salon and the balcony. "The English people all please themselves here--there comes many every summer--English Bishops and their families."I inquired whether there were many Bishops in the house at that moment.
