The Master of the Shell

CHAPTER ONE
5/32

He's written to Ponsford to say I can't turn up till next week, and says I'm doing some of the mug, so as not to be all behind.
Jolly good joke of the gov.'s, isn't it?
Catch me mugging here! "Stunning place, this! We went a picnic to--I say, by the way, while I remember it, do you know it's all a howling cram about William Tell?
There never was such a chap! This is the place he used to hang out in, and everyone says it's all my eye what the history says about him.
You'd better let Moss know.

Tell him, from inquiries made by me on the spot, I find it's all humbug, and he'd better get some chap to write a new history who knows something about it.

I was asking Railsford--by the way, he's a stunning chap.

We ran up against him on the Saint Gothard, and he's been with us ever since.

No end of a cheese! Rowed in the Cambridge boat three years ago, Number 4, when Oxford won by two feet.
