"The Painful Fall of a Great Reputation" is a Story by G.K. Chesterton. Basil Grant investigates Wimpole, the great raconteur. : Basil Grant and I were talking one day in what is perhaps the most perfect place for talking on earth - the top of a tolerably deserted tram-car. To talk on the top of a hill is superb, but to talk on the top of a flying hill is a fairy tale.
