'Men of Mugs'bro', show your mettle, Let them see that you're in fettle! Once for all this question settle Sweater shall Prevail! The carriage containing Sir Featherstone, Adam Sweater, and Rushton and Didlum was in the middle of the procession.
If it was true, we ought to be able to walk on the ceiling of this room, for instance; but of course we know that's impossible, and I really don't see that the other is any more reasonable. 'I've often noticed flies walkin' on the ceilin', remarked Didlum, who felt called upon to defend the globular theory. 'Yes; but they're different, replied Rushton.
He appealed to the Chairman to squash the amendment. Councillor Didlum remarked that he supposed Councillor Grinder meant 'quash': in that case, he would support the suggestion. Councillor Grinder said it was about time they put a stopper on that feller Weakling.
At the end of the prayer, amid groans and cries of 'Amen', the balloon slowly descended from the platform, and collapsed into one of the seats, and everyone rose up from the floor. When all were seated and the shuffling, coughing and blowing of noses had ceased Mr Didlum stood up and said: 'Before we sing the closin' 'ymn, the gentleman hon my left, the Rev. Mr John Starr, will say a few words.
'Yes, that's a capital idear, said Grinder thoughtfully. 'But who could we get to 'ave the fit? It would 'ave to be someone we could trust, you know. ''Ow about Rushton?

'Oh, well, in that case I'll withdraw my resolution, said Grinder. 'I thought you wanted to give 'im a 'luminated address or something like that. Didlum now moved that a letter of thanks and a fee of fifty guineas be voted to Mr Wireman, and this was also unanimously agreed to. Dr Weakling said that it seemed rather a lot, but he did not go so far as to vote against it.
Rushton's proposition was carried, and then the Clerk announced that the next item was the resolution Mr Didlum had given notice of at the last meeting, and the Mayor accordingly called upon that gentleman.
So that we can put the money we get for the Electric Light Works into gas shares! This was such splendid news that they had another drink on the strength of it, and Didlum said that one of the first things they would have to do would be to totally abolish the Coal Dues, because they pressed so hard on the poor. The Deserter About the end of January, Slyme left Easton's.
'And if it was true that the world goes round the sun at the rate they makes out, when a balloon went up, the earth would run away from it! They'd never be able to get back again! remarked Rushton. This was so obvious that nearly everyone said there was probably something in it, and Didlum could think of no reply.
