The disgruntled fisherman at the club lifted his voice & complained loudly. He protested against the trickery of his two companions on the trip.
"It was agreed," He explained, "before we
started, that the one who caught the first fish must stand treat to a supper. Now, you'd hardly believe it, but it's a fact that when we
got to fishing, both those fellows deliberately refused to pull in their lines
when they had bites, just so I'd be stuck."
"That was a mean trick," one of the auditors
asserted sympathetically. "How much did the supper cost you?"
The fisherman relaxed slightly. "Oh," he explained, "it wasn't as bad as
that. You see, I didn't have any bait on my hook."

promise, no
