Mason goes on to spin a tale to his little group of listeners in
The George. An army of Pygmies is brought in to "colonize" the Eleven
Days and "not allow the Time to elapse." Mason's audience is completely
taken in and Mr Hailstone even embellishes it.
Mason gets no joy out of conning the locals, and buys them all
another pint before sulking off to spend the night prior to returning to
his relatives.
