A long, long table was in the middle of the room. On
               it, there were roasted chicken, a duck foie gras, and
               lots of good things to eat. The table was recovered by
               a white tablecloth on which there were gold dishes
               and lids. For a family like the Stuart, it was like to be
               in heaven. The children never saw so much food on

               “Please,  have  a  sit”,  inquired  M.  Seward.  His  face

               at each corner of the room, ready to serve M. Seward.
               Despite  the  misunderstanding  of  the  sudden
               Edward’s  change  attitude,  Jimmy  succeed  to  take
               part to the conversation between his wife and his old
               friend.



               “Indeed, I travelled a lot. For instance, do you see this
