Then, again, your man of the world calls it a "hole," - meaning, I fancy, that we live in a provincial, slow, one-horse sort of a place. If you tell this gentleman that you consider hole to be rather strong he politely informs you that had you known anything better (I suppose he means worse), or had you mixed at all with the world, you also would call Cambridge...
