Mrs. Bostwick managed to get them all seated, although her husband had broken into another aria; and then the maid brought in the soup. MISSUS BOSTWICK MANAGED TO GET THEM ALL SEATED ALTHOUGH HER HUSBAND HAD BROKEN INTO ANOTHER ARIA AND THEN THE MAID BROUGHT IN THE SOUP
uddenly Mr. Bostwick, who was a big man, began to sing in a shrill, tremolo soprano voice. It was not the same song Bessie was playing, and the discord was shocking that the professor smiled, the senator put his hands to his ears and Mrs. Bostwick cried in a horrified voice: ŌĆ£William!ŌĆØ Her husband continued to sing as if endeavoring to emulate the famous Christine Nillson, and paid no attention whatever to his wife or his guests. Fortunately the dinner gong now sounded, and Mrs. Bostwick dragged Bessie from the piano and ushered her guests into the dining-room. Mr. Bostwick followed, singing ŌĆ£The Last Rose of SummerŌĆØ as if it had been an encore demanded by a thousand delighted hearers. The poor woman was in despair at witnessing her husbandŌĆÖs undignified actions and wondered what she might do to control him. The professor seemed more grave than usual; the senatorŌĆÖs face wore an offended expression, and Bessie kept moving her fingers as if she still wanted to play the piano.
