Herbert believes the story is pure entertainment... untrue, a joke.
The way he told the story showed that he truly believed it and his listeners became aware that their light laughter was out of place and had hurt him a little.
“Well, why don’t you have three, sir?” said Herbert, cleverly.
The soldier looked at him the way that the middle aged usually look at disrespectful youth. “I have,” he said quietly, and his face whitened.
