How the Other Half Lives?
How the Other Half Lives?
Lord
Manners was a rich and famous banker. When he died
recently, he was given a magnificent funeral
which was attended by hundreds of famous people. The
funeral was going to be held in Westminster Abbey. Many ordinary
people lined the streets to watch the procession. The
wonderful back and gold carriage was drawn by six black
horses. The mourners followed in silence. Lord Manners was
given a royal farewell. Two tramps were among the crowd. They
watched the procession in amazement. As solemn music could
be heard in the distance, one of them turned to the other
and whispered in admiration, "Now that's what I call
really living!"
