WHO FIGURE IN ITS PAGES - First words
- A robust old country-neighbour, one of the last of the squires, was heard during a severe thunderstorm thus to address his faithful and ageing servant : “Alec, you damn fool, don’t stand about there, doing nothing! Climb ... (show all)up the lightning-conductor, can’t you, and see if it’s working!”
