The Case of the Broken Chair
The first in a new series of true stories
by the intrepid septuagenarian EDWARD HORNBY
SOME time ago I discovered that one of the chairs in my front hall had a broken leg. I didn't foresee any great
difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique shops in the Pimlico Road which is three minutes'
walk from my flat, so I set forth one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop confidently
expecting a friendly reception, with a kindly man saying, `What a charming chair, yes that's quite a simple job, when
would you want it back?'
I was quite wrong. The man I approached wouldn't look at it. I wasn't too concerned; after all, it was only the first
try and there are many more shops on both sides of the road.
The reaction at the second shop, though slightly politer, was just the same, and at the third and the fourth _ so I
decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with some confidence because I had concocted a plan. I placed the chair gently on the floor
so as not to disturb the damaged leg and said `Would you like to buy a chair?' The rather fierce proprietor looked it
over carefully and said, `Yes, not a bad little chair, how much do you want for it?' `£20,' I said.
`Ok,' he said, `I'll give you £20.' `It's got a slightly broken leg, `I said. `Yes, I saw that, it's nothing, don't worry
about it.'
Everything was going to plan and I was getting excited. `What will you do with it?' I asked. `Oh, it will be very
saleable once the repair is done, I like the bit of old green velvet on the top, I shall leave that, yes, very saleable.'
`I'll buy it,' I said. `What d'ye mean? You've just sold it to me,' he said. `Yes I know but I've changed my mind; as a
matter of fact it is just what I'm looking for _ I've got a pair to it at home, I'll give you 27 quid for it.' `You must be
crazy,' he said; then suddenly the penny dropped and he smiled and said, `I know what you want; you want me to
mend your chair.' `You're plumb right,' I said.
`And what would you have done if I had walked in and said "Would you mend this chair for me?' `I wouldn't have
done it,' he said, `We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much of a nuisance, but I'll mend this for
you, shall we say a fiver?' He was a very nice man and thought the whole episode rather funny.

DAVID'S STORY
David Ndayisenga, a small boy from the north-eastern province of a remote African country, is twelve years old. He
goes to Kagiza School, where he loves playing sports, studying languages and working in the school garden. He is
bright, mischievous, athletic, energetic and fearless. But David hasn't always been such a bright and lively child.
He was born into a poor family with six children. His father was a farmer with a small patch of land. When David was
a small child life was very hard. His father worked long hours to make a living for his family but the children were
often hungry. David and his brothers helped to grow maize, beans and potatoes and to look after the goats and
sheep. David's special job was to get water every day.
When he was nine years old there was a terrible drought in the country. The animals died, the crops failed and
families starved. Two of David's brothers died. Gregoire, a volunteer worker, remembers the nine-year- old David: '
He was a frightened little boy. He'd lost two of his brothers. He was thin and ill. He followed me everywhere with his
large, sad eyes.'
David might have died during the drought like his brothers. He might never have gone to school. He might have
stayed on the farm all his life. But, when he was ten years old, a British family decided to sponsor him. Paul and Mary
Browning remember the day they decided to sponsor a child: 'We saw a programme on television about children
dying in the terrible drought and we wondered what we could do. Then some friends told us about an organization
called "Children in Distress" and we decided to write to them'.
Paul and Mary became postal parents. For the last two years they have paid for David's education at Kagiza School.
Because of their sponsorship he got a new set of clothes when he started school as well as pencils and notebooks for
his lessons.
Now David is a happy schoolboy. He is learning to read and write. His favourite lesson is Handicraft in which he learns
how to grow cabbages, lettuces and carrots in the school garden and how to make mats and pottery. He writes to
Paul and Mary twice a year and tells them about his family and his school.
David has had a much better life in the last two years. But there are many more children like him. Would you like to
sponsor a child?
