On board ship, get the purser to change what remains of $100, into French gold & silver.
From Havre to Paris, travel by fast express train & go first class. Always afterward do as we all do over there; & go 2d class. But on that first trip do not attempt this economy—it might cost serious delay & annoyance.
Forgot the plaster statue—will add that to the $100.
