Dear Medici,
It would have been such a pleasure for me to have been able to come to Rome; but I am forced instead to take another train to France.
I hope that our President, now that he is quite certain he has no ministerial position, will decide to set a date not far from now for our convention in Paris and attempt to remediate the poor impression he had us make with everyone by asking that the convention be postponed at such an inopportune moment.
I would ask you to accept a visit sometime in the next few days from Att. Ciolfi, who will bring you documents concerning the Russian coal affair and explain it all thoroughly, after which I hope to have your charming name united with those of the other friends who have faith in this affair and, I might go so far as to say, just a bit as well in the name of
yours most warmly
Tito Ricordi
