Used in a sentence
““I say, Mr. Cribbage,” cried an old master′s-mate, to the caterer, who had entered shortly after the tea-kettles, and assumed his place at the end of the table, “what sort of stuff do you call this?””
“There is a caterer for the table, whose sleekness of face, rotundity of person, and general air of comfortable well-being, do great honor to the cheer he provides.”
“If so, you will probably sign a contract with a caterer months, maybe years, in advance and make a substantial down payment.”
