I imagine there were several kinds of old fashioned christmases but it could hardly be worse than a chop in my chambers or horror of horrors at the club or my cousin lucy's notion of what she calls the festive season
2428-83699
Festive yes
2428-83699
The reply was written in a sprawling feminine hand it was a little vague
2428-83699
It appeared that the terms would be five guineas but there was no mention of the length of time which that fee would cover
2428-83699
The whole thing was a trifle odd
2428-83699
There was nothing said about the sort of accommodation which would be provided nothing about the kind of establishment which was maintained or the table which was kept
2428-83699
Now it is a remarkable thing that i have always had an extraordinary predilection for the name madge i do not know why
2428-83699
I have never known a madge and yet from my boyhood upward i have desired to meet one
2428-83699
Under such circumstances she was hardly likely to be lively herself but her name was madge and it was the accident of her christian name which decided me to go
2428-83699
I had no illusions
2428-83699
I did not expect a princely entertainment
2428-83699
All night it had been blowing and raining
2428-83699
I felt quite lively myself as i mingled with the christmas crowd looking for things which might not turn out to be absolutely preposterous
2428-83699
I even bought something for madge i mean missus wilson
2428-83699
It was a horrible journey
2428-83699
He was impervious to reason
2428-83699
It is some satisfaction for me to be able to reflect that i made it warm for the officials however cold i might have been myself
2428-83699
When at last i reached crofton my journey's end it turned out that the station staff consisted of a half witted individual who was stationmaster porter and clerk combined and a hulking lad who did whatever else there was to do
2428-83699
No one had come to meet me the village was about half a mile and hangar dene the house for which my steps were bent about four miles by the road how far it was across ploughed fields my informant did not mention
2428-83699
There was a trap at the boy and blunderbuss but that required fetching
2428-83699
When the trap did appear it looked to me uncommonly like an open spring cart
2428-83699
In it i was deposited with my luggage
2428-83699
I did not know what he meant
2428-83699
I did not ask i was beyond it
2428-83699
I was chilled to the bone wet tired hungry
2428-83699
I had long been wishing that an old fashioned christmas had been completely extinct before i had thought of adventuring in quest of one
2428-83699
Here we be that might be so
2428-83699
There be the door in front of you you go up three steps if you can find em
2428-83699
There's a knocker if none of em haven't twisted it off
2428-83699
There appeared to be no knocker though whether it had been twisted off was more than i could say
2428-83699
No answer though i allowed a more than decent interval
2428-83699
Better ring again suggested the driver hard
2428-83699
Maybe they're up to some of their games and wants rousing
2428-83699
The bell reverberated through what seemed like an empty house
2428-83699
Presently feet were heard advancing along the passage several pairs it seemed and a light gleamed through the window over the door
2428-83699
A voice inquired who's there
2428-83699
The information was greeted with what sounded uncommonly like a chorus of laughter
2428-83699
There was a rush of retreating feet an expostulating voice then darkness again and silence
2428-83699
Who lives here are the people mad
2428-83699
I tolled the bell again
2428-83699
After a vast amount of unfastening the door was opened and on the threshold there stood a girl with a lighted candle in her hand
2428-83699
I'm mister christopher from london
2428-83699
We've lost the key of the cellar and there's nothing out except water and i don't think you'd care for that
