MISTAKEN IDENTITY
(after M. Twain)
Several years ago I arrived in New York, where I was to change trains. There were
crowds of people on the platform, and they were all trying to get into the long train, which was
already packed. I asked the young man in the booking office if I could have a sleeping-berth
and he answered “No”. I went off and asked another local official if I could have some poor
little corner somewhere in a sleeping car, but he interrupted me angrily saying: “No, you can’t,
every corner is full. Now do not bother me any more!” He turned his back and walked off. I felt
so hurt that I said to my companion: “If these people knew who I was, they… .” But my
companion stopped me there, - “Don’t talk such nonsense,” he said, “if they knew who you
were, do you think it would help you to get a vacant seat in a train which has no vacant seats in
it?”
