My dear Mr. Frick: I remember that in our talk an hour ago I failed perhaps to tell you clearly that the Titian is practically "in lock" and held in Christie's cellars because Lane cannot release it with several others he committed leisurely for. He is obliged to meet a payment of $150,000 immediately on these or lose all or as he expresses it "go to the Jews" for a loan.
