And
now
this
wholly
unforeseen
severing
of
diplomatic
relations
had
popped
up
through
a
trap.
I
gave
the
thing
the
cream
of
the
Wooster
brain
all
the
way
down,
but
it
continued
to
beat
me
what
could
have
caused
the
outbreak
of
hostilities,
and
I
bunged
my
foot
sedulously
on
the
accelerator
in
order
to
get
to
Aunt
Dahlia
with
the
greatest
possible
speed
and
learn
the
inside
history
straight
from
the
horse’s
mouth.
And
what
with
all
six
cylinders
hitting
nicely,
I
made
good
time
and
found
myself
closeted
with
the
relative
shortly
before
the
hour
of
the
evening
cocktail.
She
seemed
glad
to
see
me.
In
fact,
she
actually
said
she
was
glad
to
see
me--a
statement
no
other
aunt
on
the
list
would
have
committed
herself
to,
the
customary
reaction
of
these
near
and
dear
ones
to
the
spectacle
of
Bertram
arriving
for
a
visit
being
a
sort
of
sick
horror.
“Decent
of
you
to
rally
round,
Bertie,”
she
said.
“My
place
was
by
your
side,
Aunt
Dahlia,”
I
responded.
I
could
see
at
a
g.
that
the
unfortunate
affair
had
got
in
amongst
her
in
no
uncertain
manner.
Her
usually
cheerful
map
was
clouded,
and
the
genial
smile
conspic.
by
its
a.
I
pressed
her
hand
sympathetically,
to
indicate
that
my
heart
bled
for
her.
“Bad
show
this,
my
dear
old
flesh
and
blood,”
I
said.
“I’m
afraid
you’ve
been
having
a
sticky
time.
You
must
be
worried.”
She
snorted
emotionally.
She
looked
like
an
aunt
who
has
just
bitten
into
a
bad
oyster.
