Excerpt from The Catfish

The next thing he remembered was waking in his sister's bed in a bare and immensely high room flooded with yellow sunlight. Then followed ex ploration, in his nightshirt, of one high, bare, yellow room after another, furnished principally with bell wires, long passages with stairs up and down at unexpected intervals, a flagged hall, and a deli ciously cool and queer-smelling place, with slate slabs along the whitewashed walls, where the light came down green and trembling through leaves and wire netting. This place he understood to be a dairy, and the cave at one end, where his courage failed, was a wine-cellar.
