happened to be a little dead. He
had known what society expected

and his household knew what he
would expect of them on occasions
such as this, when the credit of a
fine old family was at stake. When
persons Of quality did him the
honor to escort his rambling re-
mains to the family mausoleum, it
was proper to provide against pos
sihle pangs Of thirst that might
attend the polite exertion and to
tighten the tedium and to cheer the
gloom with customary beverage,
for would not his tombstone pro-
claim him a person of quality?
