Synopsis
Excerpt from Tom Racquet and His Three Maiden Aunts: With a Word or Two About
But the individual thus addressed, at no time remarkable for a quick apprehension, was so completely confounded between the sudden appearance of the gentleman from the area, the knock on the nose, the consequent bleeding thereof, and the bawling and bullying of Old Whittlebury to hit him on the head with the poker, that he lost the only minute allowed him for escape, and, despite the scutfiing and imploring of his dearly beloved Susan, stood stock still with amazement.
