Albert's Umbrella
"It was no mean dinner we had last Saturday," said Edward.
"There were just five of us: Albert, Brian, Charlie, Donald, and Me. We mixed our drinks a little too freely, and what do you think the result was? Each of us went away with the hat belonging to one of the others; gloves belonging to another of them; an umbrella belonging to the third. It's taken us several days to sort them out.
"For example, the bloke who had my umbrella was under the impression that he also had Donald's hat. Then, after a lot of telephoning, he found that he was wrong about that."
Amused by their contretemps, I collected a few more clues. Brian took the hat of the diner who carried Charlie's gloves. The owner of the gloves which Charlie took went off with Donald's umbrella. Donald himself took the umbrella whose owner's hat was worn by Albert. And the diner who took Brian's umbrella also took Albert's hat.
Who went home with Albert's umbrella?
