Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Brown Stone Boy: And Other Queer People "A-a-a-h! he´s no consul-general!" cried the brown-stone boy, with an accent of supreme disgust. "Oh yes, I think he is; I´m quite sure he is," I expostulated. "I had occasion to visit the consul at his office, and I am sure this is the same man." "Well, what I mean is that he´s no kind of a consul-general: he´s a fossil. What a treasure he´d have been about ten thousand years ago!" cried the brown-stone boy, wagging his head with enthusiasm. "How so?" I inquired, still puzzled. "He wouldn´t give me a ´distressed-seaman´s´ certificate. If he had, I could have sailed on this steamer for nothing. That´s the kind of a man he is."
