Friend:
Hi,
Tommy. Why are you in such low spirits?
Landlord:
Well, it’s a shame that I’ve turned
myself into a dunce.
Friend:
Come on. How could it be?
How could a man who often laughs at others for
being
mossbacks become a dunce?
Landlord:
How could I
know that a rough-looking man like an old farmer
would turn out to be
the American Vice
President?
Friend:
What happened? You turned him away for
lodging?
Landlord:
Exactly. I
offered him the barn for his stay and finally sent
him to another hotel.
Friend:
Then why don’t you go to apologize to
him at once and fetch him back?
Landlord:
That’s
what I did just now. But Mr. Vice President
wouldn’t pardon me.
Friend:
How did you make your apology?
Landlord:
I said that I shouldn’t have mistaken
him for an old farmer.
Friend:
How could you
make an apology like that? You did that only to
show that you are
still looking down
upon the farmer brothers. You made the bed and you
must lie on it.
It serves you right.
Landlord:
Oh, what a lesson, what a lesson!
