'Old Bill at Madame Cheerio's
'"You are shortly going on a journey across a field; an ugly man with a square head will cross your path; you will then hear a loud noise, after which you will rise very high in your profession." (Old Bill, incited by Bert to have his fortune told, before returning to the front, didn't like the sound of this forecast at all.)'
