Answer:
The name of the story is 'Three Men In a Boat', and it is written by Jerome K. Jerome. 'I' is the author and narrator of the story. When the narrator asked his friends to leave the matter of packing entirely to him, he meant that he would just tell his friends what to pack and where (his friends would do the packing, and he would sit and order them around). He imagined it to be a piece of cake, but his friends, misinterpreting it, just sat back and let him do the work of packing, quite literally. The phrase 'whole matter' refers to the matter of packing the suitcase.
