His father, who had a butcher shop, gave him one and six for the pictures plus an extra threepence he claimed was for candy; instead he paid a big barefoot man called Mashmouth threepence every Saturday night to laugh at the wrong moment, which always got Mashmouth evicted — so Mashmouth learned to hold his laugh until near the end.
