The camp itself was sumptuous-
seven large tents (one for each
shikari), a dining-tent, and a number
of servants' tents. The dinner was
very good, as Grandfather admitted
afterwards; it was not often that
one saw hot-water plates, finger-
glasses, and seven or eight courses,
in a tent in the jungle! But that was
how things were done in the days
of the Viceroys.

Answer:
The actual camp was luxurious with seven huge tents (one for each hunter), a feasting tent, and several workers' tents. The supper was excellent, as Grandfather conceded a while later; rarely would one see hot-water plates, finger-glasses, and seven or eight courses, a tent in the wilderness.
Explanation:
- The unseen extract belongs to the narrator Ruskin bond's "A tiger in the House."
- This is based on the story of how the author's grandfather met a tiny tiger cub "Timothy" while walking down the forest path along with his team and then brought him home.
- The actual camp was luxurious and the atmosphere was impressive with seven huge tents (one for each hunter), a feasting tent, and several workers' tents.
- The dinner served was excellent, as Grandfather conceded a while later; rarely would one see high-temperature water plates, finger glasses, and seven or eight courses, a tent in the wilderness! That was just like how things were finished in the days of the Viceroys.
