Content Description

Gilbert's affairs are now in bankruptcy: he is going to live in Belgium for a time; Ward is in hopes that he will finish the old commissions. Fry's saltcellar is in the position of a number of other works: Ward hopes that Gilbert will work them off concurrently, but he is not like anyone else, and one cannot make calculations about him.
