Excerpt from Second String The meeting was rather of an impromptu order, Christmas holidays are generally held sacred from such functions. But Mr. Foot, m.p., a rising young member and a friend of Harry Belfield's, happened to be staying at Halton Park for Shoot ing. Why waste him? He liked to speak, and he spoke very well. The more Harry showed himself and got himself heard, the better. The young men would enjoy it. A real good dinner beforehand would send them down in rare spirits. A bit of supper, with a whisky - and-soda or two, and recollections of their own scores, would end the evening pleasantly. Meriton would not be excited - it was not election time - but it would be amused, benevolent, and present in sufficiently large numbers to make the thing go with éclat.
