On your way back to your seat,” the old man continued, "you will pass through the smoker. There you will find a game of cards in progress. One of the players will invite you to join the game. Tell them, "I don’t speak English.”
"Thank you very much,” my uncle said.
"One thing more,” the old man went on, "when you go to bed at night, take your money out of your pocket and put it in your shoe. Put your shoe under the pillow, keep your head on the pillow all night and don’t sleep. That is all.”
The old man went away and on the next day my uncle Melik got aboard the train and went to New York. The two young men were not imposters, the young man with the dope did not appear, the beautiful young woman did not sit at his table in the diner and there was no card game in progress in the smoker. My uncle put his money in his shoe and put his shoe under the pillow and put his head on the pillow and did not sleep all night, but the second night he decided not to follow his uncle’s advice.
On the second day he himself offered another young man a cigarette. In the diner my uncle went to sit at a table with a young lady and long before the train got to New York my uncle knew everybody and everybody knew him. When the train was near Ohio, my uncle the young man and two young ladies sang American songs together. The journey was a very pleasant one. When my uncle Melik came back from New York, his uncle Garro visited him again.
"I see you are all right,” he said. "Did you follow my instructions?” "Yes, sir,” my uncle answered. "I am pleased,” the old man said, "that someone has profited by my experience.”
