Autograph letter signed : Warsaw, to [Eleanor Belloc Jebb] , 1928 September 18.

Describing his adventures in Poland; relating the events during his time in Warsaw saying "I am here in Warsaw after many adventures. I went through Cracow & then to the Convent-Fortress of Jasna Gora where they keep the famous holy picture of our Lady of Chestochowa. There were crowds & crowds of pilgrims. I slept in the convent or rather monastery & hung up my Ballade as an ex voto on Parchment in the chapel - which I have wanted to do for many years. We then came on here;" saying he'd received a letter from Lady Lovat, asking her to keep in touch with her and reminding her Lady Lovat is at Beaufort, Beauly, Scotland; adding that he will be going on to Dantzig and then to Brussels and will write again from there; sending his love to her husband and children and asking her to"Tell Marianne I am in a country where no one can understand one word of what I say nor I one word of what they say!" adding, in a postscript, "The Polish tongue is like this 'Buska-gruska, Noyay, tac tac, Booshy Chowshy' all the time. I sat through a whole sermon of it at high Mass. The man who preached got very excited & waved his arms about - but not a word did I understand. I am now going down the Vistula to Dantzig in a boat. When I want to eat I shall point at my mouth & when to drink I shall make a low sucking noise. Bear sends his love[.] he has made 20 hideous pictures already & I six lovely ones.
