The American millionaire had many possessions, but they were in a continust state of flux. One week he would buy half a Russian art exhibition and take a new block of flats to house it. The next, he would invite his friends of every rank and habit to choose as many pictures as they liked and his walls would be bare, till the Prince of Macca sent him some earpets, or one of his protégés insisted”, on covering them with terrible frescoes. !

This may have shown a slight instinct of self-preservation on his part. for his drivers were always strange, dark waifs, dumb or incomprehensible, wham the man-of-millions had rescued from fate, in inaccessible lands.
