representation at the Olympic games

Born of a French father and a
Greek mother, he has always had the
greatest veneration for the Hellenic

offices small and inconvenient. quite
unworthy of the country to which he
rud his mother, and being a man OF

the Greek government 10 permit him
to provide suitable premises and in
