Evening, I say.

Wonderin' who I am, aren't you! he hiccuped.
gpt
Well, don't wonder; 'sall between ol' friends to-night! Tell you what, m' friends--come with me and I'll find you a li'l drink, eh? No prohibition booze, upon m' honour; real old Boone pinchneck--got it from some boys in Louisville, been savin' it up for to-night.

Havin' a little party in one of the rooms, he continued.

All of us friends--lots more fun than dancin'! And say! I'm going pull something great, positively great; you don't want to miss it, gentlemen! You come along with me and I'll fix it for you. Come on, Gramont, that's a good fellow! You'n I had a dis'greement to-day--don't matter to-night, nothin' matters to-night, nothin' at all. Mardi Gras only comes once a year, eh? Come along, now.
