Chapter Twelve - Raw Material
ONE AFTERNOON DON CAMILLO, who for the past week had been in a chronic state of agitation and done nothing but rush around, was returning from a visit to a neighboring village. When he reached his own parish, he had to get off his bicycle because some men had appeared since his departure and were digging a ditch right across the road.
"We are putting in a new drain," a workman explained, "by the Mayor's orders."
Don Camillo went straight to the Town Hall and when he found Peppone, he lost his temper. "Are we all going off our nuts?" he exclaimed. "Here you are, digging this filthy ditch. Don't you know that this is Friday?"
"Well!" replied Peppone with astonishment. "And is it forbidden to dig a ditch on a Friday?"
