“‘All these things are likely to happen.’“‘Then don't you think that in such circumstances the corn needs prompt succour?’“‘Certainly.’“‘What should be done, do you think, to succour the part that is under the mud?’“‘The soil should be lifted.’“‘And the part that has its roots exposed?’“‘It should be earthed up.’
