  • He told me to come every day to lunch, and bring any of my friends with me; so, of course, I did, and there wasn't a better lunch on the course; and, on the cup-day, Archdale came up and talked to me -- he abused the champagne-cup, though; he said there was more soda-water than champagne in it -- the more he drank of it the more dreadfully sober he got.
