315 - When Geoffrey Hampden, who is greatly admired for his fine sense of humour, was invited to make a speech at a wedding reception, he immediately agreed to do so. Since the speech contained a large number of funny stories, it was a great success. When (after the speech) his six-year-old daughter Jenny wanted to go home after the speech, Geoffrey was disappointed. She had not enjoyed it because she did not like to see so many people laughing at him.
