"
Very
well
,
then
,
"
said
my
friend
's
wife
,
rising
,
"
all
I
have
to
say
is
,
that
I
shall
take
the
children
and
go
to
an
hotel
until
those
cheeses
are
eaten
.
I
decline
to
live
any
longer
in
the
same
house
with
them
.
"
232
She
kept
her
word
,
leaving
the
place
in
charge
of
the
charwoman
,
who
,
when
asked
if
she
could
stand
the
smell
,
replied
,
"
What
smell
?
"
and
who
,
when
taken
close
to
the
cheeses
and
told
to
sniff
hard
,
said
she
could
detect
a
faint
odour
of
melons
.
It
was
argued
from
this
that
little
injury
could
result
to
the
woman
from
the
atmosphere
,
and
she
was
left
.
233
The
hotel
bill
came
to
fifteen
guineas
;
and
my
friend
,
after
reckoning
everything
up
,
found
that
the
cheeses
had
cost
him
eight-and-sixpence
a
pound
.
He
said
he
dearly
loved
a
bit
of
cheese
,
but
it
was
beyond
his
means
;
so
he
determined
to
get
rid
of
them
.
He
threw
them
into
the
canal
;
but
had
to
fish
them
out
again
,
as
the
bargemen
complained
.
They
said
it
made
them
feel
quite
faint
.
And
,
after
that
,
he
took
them
one
dark
night
and
left
them
in
the
parish
mortuary
.
But
the
coroner
discovered
them
,
and
made
a
fearful
fuss
.

He
said
it
was
a
plot
to
deprive
him
of
his
living
by
waking
up
the
corpses
.
235
My
friend
got
rid
of
them
,
at
last
,
by
taking
them
down
to
a
sea-side
town
,
and
burying
them
on
the
beach
.
It
gained
the
place
quite
a
reputation
.
Visitors
said
they
had
never
noticed
before
how
strong
the
air
was
,
and
weak-chested
and
consumptive
people
used
to
throng
there
for
years
afterwards
.
236
Fond
as
I
am
of
cheese
,
therefore
,
I
hold
that
George
was
right
in
declining
to
take
any
.
237
"
We
sha
n't
want
any
tea
,
"
said
George
(
Harris
's
face
fell
at
this
)
;
"
but
we
'll
have
a
good
round
,
square
,
slap-up
meal
at
seven
--
dinner
,
tea
,
and
supper
combined
.

Harris
grew
more
cheerful
.
George
suggested
meat
and
fruit
pies
,
cold
meat
,
tomatoes
,
fruit
,
and
green
stuff
.
For
drink
,
we
took
some
wonderful
sticky
concoction
of
Harris
's
,
which
you
mixed
with
water
and
called
lemonade
,
plenty
of
tea
,
and
a
bottle
of
whisky
,
in
case
,
as
George
said
,
we
got
upset
.
239
It
seemed
to
me
that
George
harped
too
much
on
the
getting-upset
idea
.
It
seemed
to
me
the
wrong
spirit
to
go
about
the
trip
in
.
240
But
I
'm
glad
we
took
the
whisky
.
