In about one second I was on my feet. “Follow your leader,” I shouted. And through the aisle I went with the rest of them after me all singing those crazy rhymes that stuck in our minds like glue.

Your job is to follow and not to suppose.
And follow your leader wherever he goes.

“You don’t call that luck, do you?” Hervey said. “Just when I was counting on a nice trip to Albany.”
“I suppose you’d like to make a mistake and get on an ocean steamer,” I told him.
