Notwithstanding theseexcuses and many remonstrances, the Egyptian official made his way into the house, and installed ...himself in the room which had been assigned to us" and into which the closet where our host had concealed himself opened. I was much amused at watching the various manceuvres and artifices to which his wife had recourse in order to release him. She contrived at last to induce the officer to go to 1839] EXCHANGE HORSES FOR DONKEYS *39 the stable to see that his horse was properly attended to, when her husband slipped out of his hiding-place and took to his heels, to avoid the drubbing which he would no doubt have received for his attempt to evade the duty imposed upon him of receiving the Government officials.
