"Here I've taken all this trouble, and tired myself out, and have nearly starved myself, and the jailer comes now, with a crowd of people, and takes me back. I might as well have staid where I was. Ha! ha!" The jailer now left his party and came running toward the Jolly-cum-pop. "I pray you, sir," he said, bowing very low, "do not cast us off."
After encamping for the night, they set out the next morning, but had not marched many miles before they came to a rocky hill, on the top of which was a handsome house, inhabited by a Jolly-cum-pop. "Your Highness," said the course-marker, "in order to go in a direct line we must make a tunnel through this hill, immediately under the house.
I intended to-day to dress the convicts in prison garb, and you shall immediately be so clothed." "I shall require seventeen suits," said the Jolly-cum-pop. "Yes," said the jailer, "they shall be furnished." "And seventeen rations a day," said the Jolly-cum-pop. "Certainly," replied the jailer. "This is luxury," roared the Jolly-cum-pop.
"He will think," merrily replied the Jolly-cum-pop, "that all your prisoners are very fat, and that the little girls have grown up into big men." "I will endeavor to explain that," said the jailer.
So far, this has not been a very fine hunt." "No," cried the Jolly-cum-pop, "not yet. But what a joyful thing to see a hospitable mansion just at the moment when we begin to feel a little tired and hungry!" The building they were approaching belonged to a Potentate, who lived at a great distance. In some of his travels he had seen this massive house, and thought it would make a good prison.
