Mrs. Poppets wake them up at 9:00 o’ clock and they started blaming each other for not waking them up at 6:30 a.m. Harris and Jerome drag George out of bed into the bath tub and accused of being unobservant. Montmorency was fighting with two dogs on the doorstep. The two dogs were driven away with an umbrella. George read weather forecast at breakfast. Jerome said that the weather forecast are fraud. Jerome remembered that the weather forecast ruined their days.

When they were waiting for cab outside, their grocer, Bigg’s boy was the first to arrive who come to a dead stop in front of their luggage. Another boy and a young gentleman from the boot-shop stopped there. Soon, a lot of people gathered around their houses as they were carrying a lot luggage and guessed that there might be a funeral or wedding. Finally, a cab came and they reached waterloo station at 11:00 a.m.

Nobody knew where the 11:05 train for Kingston started from. They got contradictory answers from the porters, the station masters, traffic superintendent and the authorities about the platform number. They bribed the engine driver half-crown to be eleven five. Finally, they reached Kingston by the London and the South-Western railway. Later they learnt that the train they had come by was actually the Exeter mail and the passenger had spent hours looking for it. Their boat was waiting for them at Kingston. They stepped in. With Harris at the sculls, Jerome at the tiller-line and Montmorency in the pow, they shot out on to the water.

                                       CHAPTER-6

They finally reached Kingston which was once known as “Kyningestun” when Saxon “kings” were crowned. Old houses spoke of nobles and courtiers who lived in red brick houses.

Jerome reminded of a magnificent carved oak staircase in one of the house of Kingston which is a shop now. The shopkeeper once took his friend in that house in which wall was oak-panelled. The wall was covered with blue-wall paper. Jerome felt sad that people always end up with what they don’t want.

Jerome remembered a boy, Stivvings who studied at their school. He was an extraordinary student but he used to get ill twice a week. During the great cholera care of 1871, Stivvings was the only case in the reputed society. He had to stay in bed when he was ill and eat chickens, custards and hot-house grapes.

They were finally on the boat and rowing past Hampton court. Harris threw away the sculls, got up and sat on Jerome’s back and stuck his legs in the air. Montmorency howled and turned a somersault and the hamper jumped up and all things came out. Jerome ran the boat round the walls of Hampton court which looked peaceful.

Harris described the incidence of getting lost in the maze when he went in once to show it to someone. He had studied the map and thought it was simple. He met some people who followed him to come out. Harris was lost so they go back to the entrance and failed again to find the way out. They called the young keeper who gave them instructions but he also got lost with them. They called the young keeper who was new and not able to locate them and also got lost while entering the maze. Harris said that it was very fine maze. Harris and Jerome agreed that they would try to get George into it on their return journey.
