King of the Air: Or to Morocco on an Airship (Classic Reprint)

0/5 ( ratings)

Excerpt from King of the Air: Or to Morocco on an Airship

Mr. John Greatorex was very wealthy, and very obstinate. He had made a large fortune as a manu facturer of chemicals, but disclaimed any knowledge of chemistry. He had dabbled a little in mechanics, and was convinced that he possessed an accurate practical knowledge of its applications. Consequently, when his new motor-car arrived, he saw no necessity to take a chauffeur with him on its trial spin. He was like a child with a new toy, jealous of participation.

My dear, said Mrs. Greatorex, as she handed him his motor goggles, are you sure you will not take Timothy? What if it breaks down?
