Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Joseph in Jeopardy From the tower of St. Chrysostom on the Hill the wedding bells pealed gaily. It was a squat stone church, of early Victorian architecture, admirably suited to the congregation from Fitzjohn´s Avenue and its vicinity, that was just now converging from every point of the compass to the interesting ceremony the bells proclaimed. The porch that was neither Gothic nor Norman, but had a reminiscence of either, was somewhat concealed by an awning. A strip of carpet, like the coat of a soldier who has never been under fire, seemed redly expectant of the coming fusillade of rice. Two constables now guarded its immaculate surface; busying themselves in keeping back half a dozen stragglers, women with babies, errand boys, and other typical idlers to whom the spectacle of the streets presents itself as a perpetual free entertainment, an irresistible beguilement from labour. Soon after the bells had begun to peal and the foot passengers to arrive, carriage after carriage pulled up before the strip of red carpet, and from yellow-wheeled coupes, private carriages with hired horses, hansoms and taxi-cabs, issued fashionable young ladies from Maida Vale and Carlton Hill, from Hamilton Terrace and Abbey Road.
