OCTOBER 11TH.

In the morning I accompanied Michael Borodin to the headquarters of the

Third International. It is a beautiful house, formerly the German

Embassy, and where Mirbach was murdered.

I came away in a car with Madame Balabanoff, of whom I had often heard.

She is small, past middle age, with a crumpled-up face, but intelligent.

I did not find her any too amiable on our way to the Kremlin, where she

dropped me.
