The Napoleon of Notting Hill

CHAPTER II--_The Council of the Provosts_
4/24

There is at least warrant enough for the solemn purple plumes (following the botanical formation of lavender) which I have required people to wear in the neighbourhood of Clapham Junction.

It is so everywhere, after all.

I have never been actually to Southfields, but I suppose a scheme of lemons and olives represent their austral instincts.
