We went to the exhibition at the Palais de l'Industrie as a group, the Gavinis, Randouin, Berthe, Gery, etc. and afterwards to the Bois.
Blanc recounts that they have discovered a twelve-year-old little brother belonging to the Acard girl. This makes my happiness for the whole evening and I make a caricature with several captions about Popaul and his brother-in-law.
I do not think Blanc is as well-informed as I thought. He does not come of his own accord to speak of all this and not knowing where he stands, it is difficult.
All of this is more than absurd.
My God, what injustice You have done! No doubt it was necessary but I do not understand why.
