Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dodd Family Abroad, Vol. 2 My Dear Tom, - I am not in a humour for letter-writing, nor, indeed, for anything else that I know of. I am sick, sore, and sorry - sick of the world, sore in my feet, and sorry of heart that I ever consented to come out upon this touring expedition, every step and mile of which is marked by its own misery and misfortune. I got back - I won´t say home, for it would be an abuse of the word - on Wednesday last. I travelled all the way on foot, with something less than one-and-fourpence English for my daily expenses, and arrived to find my wife entertaining, at a pic-nic, all Baden and its vicinity, with pheasants and champagne enough to feast the London Corporation, and an amount of cost and outlay that would have made Dodsborough brilliant during a whole Assizes. I broke up the meeting, perhaps less ceremoniously than a Cabinet Council is dissolved at Osborne House, where the Ministers, after luncheon, embark - as the Court Journal tells - on board the Fairy, to meet the express train for London: valuable facts, that we never weary of reading! I routed them without even reading the Riot Act, and saw myself "master of the situation;" and a very pretty situation it was.
