The angry woman stood by the station.“ The railway owes me £12,”she said to Harry Jenks,the booking clerk (订票员).“My ticket was for May 22nd,and there was no ship from Jersey that night.My daughter and I had to stay in a hotel.It cost me £12.”
Harry was worried.He remembered selling the woman a return ticket.“ Come into the office,madam,” he said,“ I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd .”
The woman and her little girl followed him inside.She was quite right,as Harry soon discovered.There was no sailing on May 22nd.How ever had he made such a big mistake?Wondering what to do,he smiled at the child.“You look healthy,” he said to her.“ Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
“ Yes,” she answered.“ The beach was beautiful.And I can swim too!”
“ That’s fine,” said Harry.“ My little girl can’t swim a bit yet.Of course,she’s only three-----”
“ I’m four,” the child said proudly.“ I’ll soon be four and a half.”
Harry turned to the mother.“ I remember your ticket,madam,” he said.“ But you didn’t get one for your daughter,did you?”
“ Er,well-----” The woman looked at the child.“ I mean-----she hasn’t started school yet.She’s only four.”
“ A four year old child must have a ticket,madam.A child’s return to Jersey costs----let me see----£13.50.So if the railway pays your hotel bill,you will owe £1.50.The law is the law,but since we have made a mistake-----”
