"The King of Spain ran over to Bordeaux one day, and came to us and said: 'I've got two hours; what can you show me? We said: 'We can show you our cellars. 'Very well, said he; 'go ahead. When he came to the majorums he said: 'What on earth do you do with those ? 'They are used when there is a christening or a wedding or some great event, and when a king visits us we give him two."
So they sent the majorums to the young King, and the King sent back a polite note, just as if he were anybody else, and that is all of that story. Most of the newspapers which followed the government to Bordeaux have returned to the capital, but that intransigeant government-baiter, the venerable Georges Clemenceau, still continues his bombardment from close range.
Now and then younger houses discovered things that were going to revolutionize the wine trade. "Of course," he said, "we examine such things. We look in our books, where records of all our experiments are kept, and there we find that we tried that new thing in 1856 or 1756, perhaps." Far underground we came on some of the huge majorums, big as nine ordinary bottles.
