Well, a dog that isn't deaf doesn't like it gets excited, smells round, barks, growls. That upsets the customer. See? Then a dog that has his hearing fancies things. Makes burglars out of passing tramps.

'Me own mate, I says ter 'im, but 'e didn't rekkernize nothin' and then we 'ad to go on yer can't stop when yer goin' over! Soon arter me other mate copped it too.

Well, just as we pulled this 'ere table out, who should come in but Rushton, and when 'e seen it, 'e tells Crass to cover it over with a sack and not to let nobody see it. And then 'e clears orf to the shop and sends the boy down with the truck and 'as it took up to 'is own 'ouse, and it's there now, fixed in the front 'all.

At last every house and garden was full of dead bodies.
