Mr. Posket.
Wormington! there’s something wrong! Mrs. Posket quitted a fairly happy home last night and has not been seen or heard of since!
Mr. Wormington.
Pray don’t be anxious, sir, the Court is waiting.
Mr. Posket.
But I am anxious! Tell Sergeant Lugg to look over the Accident-Book, this morning’s Hospital Returns, List of Missing Children, Suspicious Pledges People left Chargeable to the Parish, Attend to your Window Fastenings——! I—I—Wormington, Mrs. Posket and I disagreed last night.
Mr. Wormington.
Don’t think of it, sir! you should hear me and Mrs. Wormington! Pray do come into Court.
Mr. Posket.
