Chapter 1, Bogart: The author introduces a man named Bogart, who rarely talked and made his money by tailoring. He had a number of friends, including Hat, with whom he often spent his time. They all talked and made merry but Bogart rarely laughed, told stories or anything of the kind. Instead, he was the most boring person the author had ever known. One day Bogart simply up and left his house on Miguel Street and was gone for two months. No one knew where he had gone. When he returned, it eventually came out that he had gotten a job on a ship and had gone to British Guiana where he had become a cowboy, smuggled things and had run a brothel until he had been arrested and escaped. When he returned, people no longer called him "Bogart" to mock him for being so unlike the Humphrey Bogart of Casablanca, but instead for having a life much like his. A bit later he disappeared for another four months and continued to sound more American. He started being nice to children- this occurred after his third disappearance as well. Bogart was eventually arrested by Sergeant Charles for bigamy. He had given a woman a baby and left her.
