Summary And dug a pit


JR Kipling
And dug a hole
Mr. Hawkins Mumrath, an official of Her Majesty’s Bengali civil service, went to bed to die of typhoid fever. The newspapers have already published obituaries concerning his forthcoming death, the ministry ordered a funeral (dug a grave, ordered a coffin, a monument, etc.). But Mumrat recovered, and all this seemed at first to him quite amusing.
When it was time to pay bills for the year, it was discovered that one grave was not paid for and free. The management of the cemetery was ready to bury itself. She sent the case to Mumrat, to which he replied that he did not need graves, and he was not going to pay it. The provincial government also refused to pay the cost of the grave, saying that the matter concerns exclusively Mr. Hawkins Mumrath and the accounting department. Accounting of the cemetery kept the cost of the grave from the monthly salary of Mumrat. Then Mumrat began to write complaints to the appropriate authorities, but in each instance he was sent to another instance. In the end, Mumrat sent all the letters to the assistant accountant of the cemetery (who actually started the whole trial) with a demand to return the retained money in accordance with some fictitious article.
Mumrat, finally having achieved his goal, decided to celebrate the victory near his grave. In an empty grave, the cobra brought forth offspring. Without noticing her, Mumrath stepped on her tail, and she bit him. He hurriedly returned home, where he died 5 hours later. And then the assistant accountant of the cemetery recorded in the “Current Accounts” book, and in India the world reigned.
