We patted him on the back and lulled
the storm, but 1t broke out again as soon
as we reached jackson. He didn't like the
situation of the hotel nor any Of the rooms
in it, nor the way the porter talked back at
him, and he flung himself into a chair and
exclaimed:
"I'm no bloomin' chump, ye know, but l
can't go this-really, / can't"
While he had been fussing around we had
put up little job on him, and now in
formed him that there was carriage at the
door to drive him to fine hotel in the
suburbs-a place we had not time to visit.
"Thats jolly, and 1 won't forget the
favor, We know" he said as he tossed his
bags into the hack and drove on.
The driver was directed TO take him out
to the insane asylum, and the order was
faithfully carried out
