i remember it very well. i was poor often didn’t have money for bread. i had a friend. he was а poor writer too. once we needed three dollars. we had to have money by evening. i don’t know where to go and where to get three dollars. for a hour i was walking along the streets of washington. at last i came to the big hotel. i went into the hall of the hotel and sat down on a sofa to have a rest. suddenly a beautiful small dog ran into the hall. it was a nice dog and began to play with it. i was playing with the dog when a man came into the hall. i knew the man at once. it was general miles. he saw the dog and liked it at once. “do you want to sell it? ” the general asked me. “three dollars” i answered. “ price of three dollars is too little for such the dog. do you want more? ” he said. i didn’t, so he took the dog and went to elevator. ten minutes later old man came into the hall. he was looking for something. “are you looking for the dog, sir? ” i asked. “ yes ,” said old man. i promised old man to find the dog for three dollars and went to the general miles’s room. the general had to return the dog and of course i returned him money. but old man paid me three dollars i had earned.
