I reached Barcelona Spain where I had plans to meet Luis- but upon reaching Barcelona and checking with my office, I received the news that my associate in my law practice with whom I had a thirty year friendship had suddenly died. "With his boots on", so to speak, he died in the office. David was a French attorney who was loved by all who knew him. The practice, of course, has had to be completely re-organized. David was such an important part here and overseas, that we must now start from the beginning. This necessitated my leaving Spain immediately, and I was unable to see anyone. Hence my apologies to Luis. One of the unfortunate consequences was that Barcelona, from my moments there, appears to be a beautiful city and its memory will forever be scarred by this incident. In any event I shall endeavor to get "back on line" although I am far busier than I thought I would be at this stage of the game. I start off with a PAW, who knows what week this one represents, but it is a strange view of New York City life- I call it: DEATH TAKES THE "B" TRAIN.
