A Myth: Look inside the book: It was after dinner-after one of Tom Gainsborough's snug, inimitable little dinners; only we three-Tom, his wife, and myself: and a couple of negro attendants, as well trained and less overpowering than the best of the native English stock; and that charming dining-room, just big enough, just cool enough, soft-carpeted, clear-walled, and the steady white radiance of the argand burners descending upon the damask tablecloth, crowned with fruits and flowers; and an agreeable shadow over the rest of the room, so that those sable servitors could perform their noiseless178 evolutions unseen; and a pervading sense of unconscious good-breeding and unobtrusive wealth; and--but I will not speak of the china; I will not descant upon Tom's wines; I don't wish to make other people envious. ...But the boat turned out to be so crowded that I changed my mind again: it was then so late that I hadn't time to reach the central railway station; my only chance of catching the train was to jump into a droschkey at the steamboat landing and drive as the kutcher never drove before, for the lower station, which was half-a-mile nearer.
