We did get one game before we started up.

Jim gave me fifteen in two games each set.

I pulled off the first, but he whacked me the other two.
It's a beastly rough court, though, and the mountain was awfully in the light.
We hadn't much difficulty finding the way to the Matterhorn, as there was a sign-post at the end of the village.

We thought we might as well take the easy side, as the front of the hill is pretty stiff.

Of course we had to take a good long round, which was a nuisance, as we meant to be back for _table d'hote_ at seven.
