61 Every human being, every house, every tree, all the world as we know it, had been destroyed. Luckily, with the sole exception of George Fotheringay.

62 Everyone accused Fotheringay of a silly trick, and blamed him for causing a disturbance.

63 For heaven's sake, what's come over him? He's intoxicated. Get him out of here, for goodness sake, by the back door before any of the customers see him.

64 For instance, in addition to the two boiled eggs that his landlady served him, he also indulged in a delicious goose egg, laid, boiled and served by his own volition.

65 Fotheringay awoke at his usual hour and was pensive all through breakfast time, wondering whether his overnight experience might not have been a particularly vivid dream.

66 From time to time I'm inviting some of my friends from the theater to join me as my guests in this programme.

67 George Fotheringay performed no more miracles that night, nor did he trouble to see what had become of his flowering walking stick.

68 George, you ought to be ashamed. What do you think you're playing at, coming in here and playing tricks like that?

69 Go on. You were drunk. That's why they had to throw you out.

70 Good heavens! It is a bowl of violets! Yes, violets in November.
