'Musical honours, chaps, shouted Crass, waving his glass and leading off the singing which was immediately joined in with great enthusiasm by most of the men, the Semi-drunk conducting the music with a table knife: For he's a jolly good fellow, For he's a jolly good fellow, For he's a jolly good fel-ell-O, And so say all of us, So 'ip, 'ip, 'ip, 'ooray! So 'ip, 'ip, 'ip, 'ooray!
'Amen, said the believers, fervently, and then the man who was dressed in the long garment entreated all those who were not yet true believers and doers of the word to join earnestly and MEANINGLY in the singing of the closing hymn, which he was about to read out to them. The Semi-drunk obligingly conducted as before, and the crowd faded away with the last notes of the music. Ruth
As he played, the others uttered exclamations of admiration and called out the result of every throw. 'One! 'One again! 'Miss! No! Got 'im! Two! 'Miss! 'Miss! 'Four! The Semi-drunk accepted his defeat with a good grace, and after explaining that he was a bit out of practice, placed a shilling on the counter and invited the company to give their orders.
He also made a long, rambling statement from which it appeared that on his way to the 'Cricketers' he met a couple of chaps whom he knew who were out of work, and he invited them to come and have a drink. When they got to the pub, they found there the Semi-drunk and the Besotted Wretch.
The Besotted Wretch was there, just finishing a game of hooks and rings with the Semi-drunk who had called round on the day after he was thrown out, to apologize for his conduct to the Old Dear, and had since then become one of the regular customers. Philpot was absent. He had been there that afternoon, so the Old Dear said, but he had gone home about five o'clock, and had not been back since.
By this time the Semi-drunk had again opened fire on the board, but he seemed to have lost the range, for none of the rings scored. They flew all over the place, and he finished his innings without increasing his total. The Besotted Wretch now sailed in and speedily piled up 37. Then the Semi-drunk had another go, and succeeded in getting 8.
This condition occasionally proved to be the stage of transition into yet another modification of the disease that known as dipsomania, the phase exhibited by Bill Bates and the Semi-drunk. Yet another form of insanity was that shown by the Socialists. Like most of their fellow passengers in the last coach, the majority of these individuals appeared to be of perfectly sound mind.
Crass had gone outside during this conversation, but he returned in a few minutes. 'I feel a bit easier now, he remarked with a laugh as he took the half-pint glass that the Semi-drunk passed to him with a shaking hand.
When this had been unanimously agreed to, the Semi-drunk moved a similar tribute of gratitude to Crass for his services to the cause and the meeting dispersed. June During the early part of May the weather was exceptionally bad, with bitterly cold winds.
The tall man observed that this was what was called a compound resolution, and was proceeding to explain further when the chairman exclaimed that it did not matter a dam' what it was called would anyone second it? The Semi-drunk said that he would in order to get on with the business. Bundy moved, and Sawkins seconded, as an amendment, that it should be a whole day.
