A possible source for the "modern italian copy"
#39
In 1904 he obtained UK citizenship, which protected him a bit.
During his trips to the continent, he was occasionally shadowed by Russian agents, and he and his wife made a point of identifying the agents in question and offering them cups of coffee.

Whether he ever visited the Polish office, I don't know. Having it was one way of occasionally helping Poles in trouble to move over to the West. This was risky for him, as occasionally these people were not really Poles in trouble, but agents.

Later, he also had similar subsidiaries in Paris and Vienna.

(Sorry for the OT).
