'Tell 'im Euston Station,' ses Elbert, an' so I did.

You know the 'uge top o' thet station from the 'ill by the Angel--well, kid, I tell you I saw a reel mountain for the first time, when I saw thet.

It was the 'eat mist, an' a sort o' pink light made a reel 'ighland landscape out of it.

I paid the taxi-man over 'alf of all the money I 'ad, an' we went to the ticket-awfice.

'Elbert,' I ses, 'where shell we book to,' I ses, like that, though I 'adn't 'ardly a bloody oat in me purse.
