シンシン刑務所に服役している年老いたギャングのボスを毎週面会する事になった経緯をHollyが説明しています。
次ぎの文の 'He' は依頼人（弁護士）を指しています。
He asked me how I'd like to cheer up a lonely old man, at the same time pick up a hundred a week. I told him look darling, you've got the wrong Miss Golightly, I'm not a nurse that does tricks on the side. I wasn't impressed by the honorarium either; you can do as well as that on trips to the powder room: any gent with the slightest chic will give you fifty for the girls john, and I always ask for cab fare too, that's another fifty.
"honorarium" は知らない単語ですが、文脈からすると面会に対する報酬/礼金の様ですが確認します。
・Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary: a payment for a service (as making a speech) on which custom or propriety forbids a price to be set
・Cambridge English Dictionary: a usually small sum of money paid to someone for a service for which no official charge is made: We usually offer our visiting lecturers an honorarium of ￡50.
・Dictionary.com: a payment in recognition of acts or professional services for which custom or propriety forbids a price to be set: The mayor was given a modest honorarium for delivering a speech to our club.
報酬はちょっと合わないですね。礼金やお坊さんに戒名を付けてもらう時に渡すお金もこれでしょう。それにしてもHollyは今で言う援助交際で生活している女の様です。
