He wore gold bracelets on his arm
and rings with rubies and other
precious stones on every finger.
When he understood what was
wanted, he cried: "It is infamy-

Affirming that he had always sac

his son, Prince Cyrille, to testify to
his noble sentiments. When the prince
arrived Ferdinand cried: "Kiki, swear
that your father was never traitor"
The son, hardly awake, failed to- grasp
the situation and remained silent,
whereupon his father burst out:
Get out, you're only an idiot. Kiki,
you understand nothing. Send for my
faithful general"
This general proved to be Bulgarian
who spoke only his native language.
"A triangular conversation followed,
the former king translating Count

Despite Ferdinand's plea that nov
