The Sport of the Gods
Authorship not stated
You are Berry Hamilton, butler to the Oakleys, readying Francis's Paris farewell dinner while your wife Fannie manages the linens and your children carry the trays. When nine hundred dollars disappears from an unlocked cabinet upstairs, twenty years of service count for nothing against the five hundred dollars Fannie has just banked after four years of saving. The chapter ends with handcuffs on your wrists and a bundle of dated pay receipts still unopened on the table.
