by C. Haddon Chambers

[Exit Evans, L.

Mrs. Parbury.

I needn’t keep you from your friend, Mr. Gunning, any longer.

Parbury.

I’m all right here, dear; I’m perfectly contented. [He turns over leaves.] There is such a wise passage here. I’d like to read it to you. [She makes a gesture of irritation.] No! Well, it must keep.

Enter Caroline, L.

Mrs. Parbury.

Caroline, I shall want you to pack a few things for me.

Caroline.
