I have promised that you should. I took your word. I will make it all right with the old woman. Sure enough he did make it right, for down he comes to the cottage next morning when I was at work, and talks to her, and makes her laugh. (i wish I could, sometimes; it would make life easier.) Then he makes her promise I shall go, and gives her half a crown for nothing at all. When I comes home from the job I was doing, she says to me, Bill, I have made it all right with Mr. Parker, and you are to go to-night at eight o'clock to the Blue Lion parlour to keep your promise. I know, howsoever, the missus did not feel so right as she said, for I could see clearly she was not at all happy about my going. She says, You can't go before gents at an anni versity in a smock-frock. I says, Why can't I? It is nearly new, and I always wears a smock-frock. Nobody would know me if I didn't.
