 His dream has been to venture out on a collecting trip abroad, but lack of resources or interfering circumstances never allowed this to happen.He imagines to be in butterfly places such as Digne in France, Ragusa in Dalmatia, Sarepta in Russia, or Abisko in Lapland, or even catching them in the tropics, or following the lead of Father Dejean (a French missionary who worked in East Tibet).At last, by cheating a customer, he makes enough money to follow his dream and is prepared to abandon wife and business.
