The Man In The Mailbag


Gordon R. Dickson


The Right Honorable Joshua Guy, Ambassador Plenipotentiary to Dilbia, was smoking tobacco in a pipe. The fumes from it made John Tardy cough and strangle—or, at least, so it seemed.
“Sir?” wheezed John Tardy.
“Sorry,” said Joshua, knocking the pipe out in an ashtray where the coals continued to smolder only slightly less villainously than before.
“Thought you heard me the first time. I said that naturally as soon as we knew you were being assigned to the job, we let out word that you were deeply attached to the girl.”

After the first time one picked up Heinie, he wasn’t able to step out onto the street without some Dilbian lifting him up to hear him yell for help. The Squeaking Squirt, they called him—very bad for Earth-Dilbian relations.” He looked severely at John. “I don’t expect anything like that from you.” The ambassador’s eye seemed to weigh John’s chunky body and red hair.
“No, no,” said John hastily.
