During the evening the little girl, accompanied by Sir Graball and Lady D'Encloseland, motored round to all the schools where the tea was being consumed: the Baronet made a few remarks, and Honoria made a pretty little speech, specially learnt for the occasion, at each place, and they were loudly cheered and greatly admired in response.
The very same week that Sir Graball's salary was increased to L5,000 a year, all the papers were full of a very fine one that he made. They appeared with large headlines like this: GREAT SPEECH BY SIR GRABALL D'ENCLOSELAND Brilliant Epigram! None should have more than they need, whilst any have less than they need!
Some of these overfed females the wives of tradesmen, for instance belonged to the Organized Benevolence Society, and engaged in this 'work' for the purpose of becoming acquainted with people of superior social position one of the members was a colonel, and Sir Graball D'Encloseland the Member of Parliament for the borough also belonged to the Society and occasionally attended its meetings.
Sir Graball D'Encloseland, the Member of Parliament for the borough, was one of the bitterest opponents of the halfpenny rate, but as he thought it was probable that there would soon be another General Election and he wanted the children's fathers to vote for him again, he was willing to do something for them in another way.
Other groups to the same tune sang 'Good ole Close land'; and every now and again they used to leave off singing and begin to beat each other. Fights used to take place, often between workmen, about the respective merits of Adam Sweater and Sir Graball D'Encloseland.
