AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A family man's labours to cut the grass with a new mower he allowed himself to be shamed into buying are lightened when he hires a man to do it. His wife's new rose cuttings die before she and the children return - and she receives the bill for the lawn cutting. (PB)
