questions on my unknown friend by Stephan leacock
Answers
The unknown friend was a person that
Stephen Leacock once met when he was traveling. The person wore a long fur coat
and had a suitcase with him. He looked at the author and recognized him
instantly. This was followed by a shake hand and exchange of pleasantries.
While the author returned the same, he could not recall where he had met the
person before.
The person said that it was a long time since he had met the author and the rest of the gang. He said that it was strange how it was that people lost track of their friends over a period of time. He went on to ask if the author went back to the old place. The author made it a point to change the topic so that the person would not ask him about the old place once again. Just then, the person said that he caught up with some members of their gang at times and that they always enquired about the author. The author decided to play it safe and asked him if he had any news of Billy as he was was sure that there was a Billy in every gang. The unknown friend immediately replied that Billy was in Montana.
