He came into his inheritance in 1864 but was a hopeless spendthrift.
Entirely uninterested in the character of his inheritance, he removed the
whole of the library to Paris where it was sold at auction. Still in constant
need of money, he also disposed of numerous works of art and even put the
neglected Arkadia estate up for sale. Finally he decided to settle in France
and, in 1879, agreed to sell Nieborow to his brother's son, Michal Piotr.
