Yes, to get a little keg for French brandy. So then I went with Dobchinsky to Pachechuyev's.--Will you stop, Piotr Ivanovich? Please don't interrupt.--So off we went to Pachechuyev's, and on the way Dobchinsky said: "Let's go to the inn," he said. "I haven't eaten a thing since morning. My stomach is growling." Yes, sir, his stomach was growling. "They've just got in a supply of fresh salmon at the inn," he said. "Let's take a bite." We had hardly entered the inn when we saw a young man-- DOBCHINSKY (Interrupting). Of rather good appearance and dressed in ordinary citizen's clothes.
