Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mystery of the Green Ray The youth in the multi-coloured blazer laughed. "You´d have to come and be a nurse," he suggested. "Oh, I´d go as a drummer-boy. Id look fine in uniform, wouldn´t I?" the waitress simpered in return. Dennis Burnham swallowed his liqueur in one savage gulp, pushed back his chair, and rose from the table. "Silly young ass," he said, in a voice loud enough for the object of his wrath to hear. "Let´s get outside." The four of us rose, paid our bill, and went out, leaving the youth and his flippant companions to themselves. For it was Bank Holiday, August the third, 1914, and I think, though it was the shortest and most uneventful of all our river "annuals," it is the one which we are least likely to forget. On the Saturday Dennis, Jack Curtis, Tommy Evans and myself had started from Richmond on our yearly trip up the river. Even as we sat in the two punts playing bridge, moored at our first camping-place below Kingston Weir, disquieting rumours reached us in the form of excited questions from the occupants of passing craft.
