"Think so？" said the undertaker in a tone which half admitted and halfdisputed the probability of the event. "The prices allowed by the boardare very small, Mr. Bumble.""So are the coffins," replied the beadle: with precisely as near anapproach to a laugh as a great official ought to indulge in.Mr. Sowerberry was much tickled at this: as of course he ought to be;and laughed a long time without cessation.
