GEORGE SELWYN, happening to be at Bath when it was nearly empty, was
induced, for the mere purpose of killing time, to cultivate the
acquaintance of an elderly gentleman he was in the habit of meeting at
the Rooms. In the height of the following season, Selwyn encountered his
old associate in St. James's street. He endeavored to pass unnoticed,
but in vain. What! don't you recollect me? exclaimed the cuttee. I
recollect you perfectly, replied Selwyn; and when I next go to Bath, I
shall be most happy to become acquainted with you again.
