My mother called me Charles James Harrington Fitzroy Yellowplush, in compliment to several noble families. I didn’t know why she called me so, but I guess, she gave me this name on the assumption of a part of her dress. We led a strange life; sometimes ma was dressed in satin and rouge, and sometimes in rags; sometimes I got kisses, and sometimes kicks; sometimes gin, and sometimes champagne. I remember that how she used to swear at me, and cuddle me; there we were, quarrelling and making up, sober and tipsy, starving and gutting by turns, just as ma got money or spent it. But there was an accident that changed my life… What happened to him or her mother? Read the story to know it!
