Carrie
and
I
took
him
downstairs
,
but
the
table
was
a
wreck
.
There
was
not
a
glass
of
champagne
left
--
not
even
a
sandwich
.
Mr.
Perkupp
said
he
required
nothing
,
but
would
like
a
glass
of
seltzer
or
soda
water
.
The
last
syphon
was
empty
.
Carrie
said
:
"
We
have
plenty
of
port
wine
left
.
"
Mr.
Perkupp
said
,
with
a
smile
:
"
No
,
thank
you
.
I
really
require
nothing
,
but
I
am
most
pleased
to
see
you
and
your
husband
in
your
own
home
.
Good-night
,
Mrs.
Pooter
--
you
will
excuse
my
very
short
stay
,
I
know
.
"
I
went
with
him
to
his
carriage
,
and
he
said
:
"
Do
n't
trouble
to
come
to
the
office
till
twelve
tomorrow
.
"
252
I
felt
despondent
as
I
went
back
to
the
house
,
and
I
told
Carrie
I
thought
the
party
was
a
failure
.
Carrie
said
it
was
a
great
success
,
and
I
was
only
tired
,
and
insisted
on
my
having
some
port
myself
.
I
drank
two
glasses
,
and
felt
much
better
,
and
we
went
into
the
drawing-room
,
where
they
had
commenced
dancing
.
Carrie
and
I
had
a
little
dance
,
which
I
said
reminded
me
of
old
days
253
She
said
I
was
a
spooney
old
thing
.

November
16
.
--
Woke
about
twenty
times
during
the
night
,
with
terrible
thirst
.
Finished
off
all
the
water
in
the
bottle
,
as
well
as
half
that
in
the
jug
.
Kept
dreaming
also
,
that
last
night
's
party
was
a
failure
,
and
that
a
lot
of
low
people
came
without
invitation
,
and
kept
chaffing
and
throwing
things
at
Mr.
Perkupp
,
till
at
last
I
was
obliged
to
hide
him
in
the
box-room
(
which
we
had
just
discovered
)
,
with
a
bath-towel
over
him
.
It
seems
absurd
now
,
but
it
was
painfully
real
in
the
dream
.
I
had
the
same
dream
about
a
dozen
times
.
255
Carrie
annoyed
me
by
saying
:
"
You
know
champagne
never
agrees
with
you
.
"
I
told
her
I
had
only
a
couple
of
glasses
of
it
,
having
kept
myself
entirely
to
port
.
I
added
that
good
champagne
hurt
nobody
,
and
Lupin
told
me
he
had
only
got
it
from
a
traveller
as
a
favour
,
as
that
particular
brand
had
been
entirely
bought
up
by
a
West
--
End
club
.
256
I
think
I
ate
too
heartily
of
the
"
side
dishes
,
"
as
the
waiter
called
them
.
I
said
to
Carrie
:
"
I
wish
I
had
put
those
'
side
dishes
'
aside
.
"
I
repeated
this
,
but
Carrie
was
busy
,
packing
up
the
teaspoons
we
had
borrowed
of
Mrs.
Cummings
for
the
party
.
It
was
just
half-past
eleven
,
and
I
was
starting
for
the
office
,
when
Lupin
appeared
,
with
a
yellow
complexion
,
and
said
:
"
Hulloh
!
Guv.
,
what
priced
head
have
you
this
morning
?
"
I
told
him
he
might
just
as
well
speak
to
me
in
Dutch
.
He
added
:
"
When
I
woke
this
morning
,
my
head
was
as
big
as
Baldwin
's
balloon
.
"
On
the
spur
of
the
moment
I
said
the
cleverest
thing
I
think
I
have
ever
said
;
viz
.
257
:
"
Perhaps
that
accounts
for
the
parashooting
pains
.
"
We
roared

Still
feel
tired
and
headachy
!
In
the
evening
Gowing
called
,
and
was
full
of
praise
about
our
party
last
Wednesday
.
He
said
everything
was
done
beautifully
,
and
he
enjoyed
himself
enormously
.
Gowing
can
be
a
very
nice
fellow
when
he
likes
,
but
you
never
know
how
long
it
will
last
.
For
instance
,
he
stopped
to
supper
,
and
seeing
some
blanc-mange
on
the
table
,
shouted
out
,
while
the
servant
was
in
the
room
:
"
Hulloh
!
The
remains
of
Wednesday
?
"
259
November
18
.
--
Woke
up
quite
fresh
after
a
good
night
's
rest
,
and
feel
quite
myself
again
.
I
am
satisfied
a
life
of
going-out
and
Society
is
not
a
life
for
me
;
we
therefore
declined
the
invitation
which
we
received
this
morning
to
Miss
Bird
's
wedding
.
We
only
met
her
twice
at
Mrs.
James
'
,
and
it
means
a
present
.
Lupin
said
:
"
I
am
with
you
for
once
.
To
my
mind
a
wedding
's
a
very
poor
play
.
There
are
only
two
parts
in
it
--
the
bride
and
bridegroom
.
The
best
man
is
only
a
walking
gentleman
.
With
the
exception
of
a
crying
father
and
a
snivelling
mother
,
the
rest
are
supers
who
have
to
dress
well
and
have
to
pay
for
their
insignificant
parts
in
the
shape
of
costly
presents
.
"
I
did
not
care
for
the
theatrical
slang
,
but
thought
it
clever
,
though
disrespectful
.
260
I
told
Sarah
not
to
bring
up
the
blanc-mange
again
for
breakfast
.
It
seems
to
have
been
placed
on
our
table
at
every
meal
since
Wednesday
.
Cummings
came
round
in
the
evening
,
and
congratulated
us
on
the
success
of
our
party
.
