"Ketika Duke [WJC Scott-Bentinck] meninggal, ahli warisnya menemukan semua kamar di atas tanah tanpa perabot kecuali untuk satu ruangan di mana duduk komandan Duke. Aula utama secara misterius kurang lantai. Sebagian besar kamar dicat merah muda. Satu ruangan di lantai atas tempat Duke bertengger dipadati langit-langit dengan ratusan kotak hijau, yang masing-masing berisi satu wig coklat gelap. Singkatnya, ini adalah pria yang pantas untuk dikenali."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

When the Duke [W.J.C. Scott-Bentinck] died, his heirs found all of the aboveground rooms devoid of furnishings except for one chamber in the middle of which sat the Duke's commode. The main hall was mysteriously floor less. Most of the rooms were painted pink. The one upstairs room in which the Duke had resided was packed to the ceiling with hundreds of green boxes, each of which contained a single dark brown wig. This was, in short, a man worth getting to know.
