[A Jolly Fellowship by Frank R. Stockton]@TWC D-Link bookA Jolly Fellowship CHAPTER XI 1/24
CHAPTER XI. REGAL PROJECTS. The next morning, we all went around to see the queen, and on the way we tried to arrange our affair.
I was only sorry that my old school-fellows were not there, to go into the thing with us.
There couldn't have been better fun for our boys, than to get up a revolution and set up a dethroned queen.
But they were not there, and I determined to act as their representative as well as I could. We three--Corny, Rectus and I--were agreed that the re-enthronement--we could think of no better word for the business--should be done as quietly and peacefully as possible.
It was of no use, we thought, to make a great fuss about what we were going to do.
