There's that boring parade to-morrow at five again, and I've got a headache that will last me a week, thanks to Nappy's bad champagne. Well, what's the damage?" The young fellow who had sat with his head bowed over his cards looked up with a sickly smile. "Yes, what's the damage?" he said. "I can't be bothered I've lost count. You and I must have done pretty badly, Phipps."
No, no; I've a great reverence for Nappy's genius." "It's an infernally undignified proceeding, anyhow," Webb went on. "I'm beginning to see that old Stafford wasn't so far wrong. What do we want with the fellow? All this kowtowing will go to his head and make him as 'uppish' as the rest of 'em. He's conceited enough, already, aping us as though he had been at it all his life."
