I told him j that in English houses you turn a tap and the water flows, touched a button ! and the room was flooded with light— ! in fact I gave him a good glowing de- 1 scription of alt the alleged triumphs of I civilization. When I had catalogued I at much as I could remember I i stopped and waited for the old negro i to show his surprise.
