قصة الكتاب :
The narrator has been asked by a friend to be hospitable to Jevon, a ‘TG’ (Travelling Gentleman) who is on a visit to India. He seems pleasant enough, and the narrator takes him to a ball. Unfortunately he gets extremely drunk, and behaves very badly, infuriating a number of the narrator’s friends. At the end of the ball, they decide together to administer savage punishment to the unconscious man, corking his face, filling his hair with cream, rolling him up helpless in a greatr roll of red cloth, and throwing him onto a departing bullock-cart. He is never seen again. ‘Perhaps he died and was thrown into the river.’
