Miss Stannard
(Sweetly)
I had no idea, Mrs. Frowde, you were receiving formally to-day.
Mrs. Frowde
(Constrained throughout)
I only sent out a few special cards to meet Miss Tenner. But now that you’ve come, let me present you to her. Miss Stannard.
Patricia
(More cordial than ever)
Miss Eva Stannard? (Miss Stannard nods.) Oh; I’m indeed glad to meet you.
