430Letter Nr. 97[To P . Semenenko and J. Kajsiewicz]Paris, October 19, 1835MondayDearest Brothers! 411Forgive me if I am late, and do not feel that I have forgotten about you; forGod knows that you are with me each day, in my heart and in my mind. Caught inthe midst of constant troubles, I put off writing to you, first until Adam’s 412departure, then until I moved 413 , and so on until today. And today there is no needto write at length, for you will surely be in Paris soon.You may have read in the newspapers about the arrest the day beforeyesterday of 15 of our people, who had gathered for some kind of meeting 414 atBatignolles. Among these were Joseph Zaleski and Ordęga, as well asZwierkowski 415 , Hłuśniewicz 416 and Nabielak 417 . I learned of this today - onlyafew moments ago - and so I know nothing about Karski. I do know thatBohdan 418 was not there. I will go to Chaillot tomorrow to get all the details, andwill send you these in a postscript.411 B. Jański sent P. Semenenko and J.
