(MISS EASTWOOD laughs. She and TRENT go up L. CROSBY is by chesterfield C. MASON below table R. MRS. CROSBY is seated at lower end of table. MRS. TRENT comes to arm-chair L.C. and sits.)

MRS. CROSBY. I'm very glad. Really I'm greatly interested.

ROSALIE (crosses R.). Thank you, madame.

CROSBY (coming down C.). I think after what we've seen, we must ask Madame la Grange to submit to certain conditions.

ROSALIE. Anything at all, sir—anything at all.

MASON (down R.). I agree with you. Frankly this woman impresses me. I think this test should be taken seriously.

(MISS EASTWOOD at the L. end of the chesterfield, laughs.)

WALES (L.C.). Just what I was going to say.

CROSBY (R.C.). If you will submit to the conditions we impose, Madame la Grange, and then show us any manifestations, I will never scoff at anything again.

ROSALIE. Scoffing is the easiest thing anybody can do.
