Text Appearing Before Image:
o bed. Tuesday, September 9.The first thing I did this morning was tohunt up my banker. That gentleman, aftersupplying me with the required Germanmoney, cross-questioned me in the most ap-proved Prussian manner and very politelytold me what I should see in Kiel. Insteadof following his advice, we went to theThaulow Museum and saw some wonderfulold Schleswig-Holstein wood-carving.

We arrived at Lubeck quite a bit be-fore noon, so, after securng rooms at theStadt-Hamburg Hotel, we went to see theCathedral. It is a fine, brick Gothic churchand contains a famous painting, Memllngsdouble
