What sort of a man is Mr. Posket, Aggy?
Agatha Posket.
The best creature in the world. He’s a practical philanthropist.
Charlotte.
Um—he’s a Police Magistrate, too, isn’t he?
Agatha Posket.
Yes, but he pays out of his own pocket half the fines he inflicts. That’s why he has had a reprimand from the Home Office for inflicting such light penalties. All our servants have graduated at Mulberry Street. Most of the pictures in the dining-room are genuine Constables.
Charlotte.
Take my advice—tell him the whole story.
