Secretary of the Society for the Suppression of Cruelty to Ganders

This passage comes back to me at the weirdest moment.


May 20, 2014
CHAPTER 65 The Whale as a Dish

And what do you pick your teeth with, after devouring that fat goose? With a feather of the same fowl. And with what quill did the Secretary of the Society for the Suppression of Cruelty to Ganders formerly indite his circulars? It is only within the last month or two that that society passed a resolution to patronize nothing but steel pens.
