While still in Burguete, Jake receives a letter from Mike. Brett passed out on the train, so they’ve decided to stay in San Sebastian for three days so she can rest. Mike apologizes for running late but says Brett will be well when they all reconvene in Pamplona. Jake asks Harris what day it is. Harris tells him it’s Wednesday, and Jake says that he must leave that afternoon. Jake invites Harris to Pamplona, but Harris decides to stay and continue fishing.
Cohn sends a telegram that says he’ll be coming on Thursday. Jake criticizes the brevity of Cohn’s telegram because Cohn could have provided more information for the same price. Jake and Bill reply to the telegram, telling Cohn that they’ll be in Pamplona that night. They go to a pub with Harris, who insists on paying for their wine; because Harris speaks Spanish so well, the innkeeper won’t take his money. Harris emphasizes how much he’s enjoyed their company, noting that he’d “not had much fun since the war” (134).
Jake and Bill bid farewell to Harris and get on the bus to Pamplona. In the city, lights are being strung for the big fiesta. Back at the hotel, Montoya tells them that their friends have arrived.
