Enid’s wedding dress arrived at five o’clock in the evening just seventeen hours before her marriage!
“I must try it on,Mother!” she cried,as she ran upstairs.
Three minutes later Enid’s cries brought her mother in.The dress was much too big for her.It was baggy in the front,and the neckline looked all wrong.Enid was in tears.
“Take it back to dressmaker’s,” Mrs Bale said.She must alter it tonight.“Hurry now.Take it off and go.”
The dressmaker’s shop was closed.“CLOSED FOR ONE WEEK’S HOLIDAY” said a notice on the door.Tears rose to Enid’s eyes.She ran home again to her mother.
“This is unlucky,” Mrs Bale said.“But what are we going to do?Shall I ask Mrs Peters to help?She was a dressmaker once.I’m sure she could alter it for you.”
Mrs Peters was brought in and began to work.She could see what was wrong.She had to take in a lot of material at the front,and that was a big job.Then she altered the neckline-in fact she made it again.At ten o’clock the work was finished,and Enid tried the dress on.It suited her beautifully.
The three women were having a cup of tea when the doorbell rang.Mrs Bale answered it and looked into the worried eyes of a fat young woman.The woman was carrying a large,flat box.
“Does Miss Enid Bale live here?” she asked breathlessly (气喘吁吁地).
“Yes.She’s my daughter.”
“Oh,I’m glad I’ve found you!There’s been a mistake.Your daughter has my wedding dress,and I’ve got hers.And I’m getting married tomorrow!” She held out the box to Mrs Bale.

Enid的婚纱在晚上5点的时候送到了,而此时离她的婚礼仅仅只剩下17个小时.
“我必须去试穿一下,妈妈”她边哭着边跑上楼去了.
3分钟后Enid的的哭声引来了她的妈妈,原来这个婚纱对她来说太大了,前边太宽松了有点下垂,而且领口看起来也不对劲,Enid已经泣不成声了.
“把它拿回婚纱店” Bale夫人说道,“她们必须在今天晚上改好它,把婚纱脱下来赶紧送过去”.
但是,婚纱店已经关门了,在门上悬挂着一个牌子“停业休假一个星期”,
泪水胀红了Enid的眼睛,她奔跑着回家告诉了她的妈妈.
“真是不走运”Bale夫人说道,“但是现在能怎么办呢?我可以找Peters夫人帮忙吗?她曾经也做过婚纱的,我想她可以帮你把婚纱改一下”.
Peters夫人来了并开始修改婚纱.她知道了问题所在,在婚纱的前边裁掉很多布料,花费很多的时间,然后她也将领口做了修改--事实上,这件婚纱相当于重新做了一遍.在10点钟的时候婚纱改好了,Enid试着穿上了它,非常适合她,看起来非常的漂亮.
三人正在喝茶的时候门铃响了,Bale夫人开门看到一个满眼焦虑捧着一个大盒子的胖女孩.
“请问Enid小姐是住在这里吗?”她气喘吁吁的问道.
“是的,她是我的女儿”
“上帝保佑,真庆幸找到了你!我犯了个错误,我拿了你女儿的婚纱,而她现在拿的是我的,我明天举行婚礼!”她拿出盒子递给了Bale夫人.
