Excerpt:
Well, whenever i had been dead about thirty years I begun to get a little anxious. Actually, had been whizzing through space all that time, such as a comet. Such as a comet! Why, Peters, I laid above the lot of these! Needless to say there wasn't any of them going my way, as a steady thing, you know, because they travel in a long circle like the loop of any lasso, whereas I got pointed as straight as a dart for the Hereafter; but I happened on one every now and then that was going my method for an hour or so, and then we had a bit of any brush together. An ordinary comet don't make more than about 200,000 miles a minute. Needless to say when I came across one of this sort - like Encke's and Halley's comets, for instance - it wasn't not just a flash and a vanish, the simple truth is. But when i got beyond our astronomical system, I used to flush a comet occasionally.
