Mar. You... I understand you want to see me, Lady Mottram.
Lady M. (immensely superior). Yes. Your name is Shawcross? Margaret Shawcross?
Mar. Yes.
Lady M. Fifteen, Rosalie Street?
Mar. Yes.
Lady M. Ah! (With patronising kindliness.) I've sent for you, Miss Shawcross, to give you a warning—a friendly warning. Er—you may sit down.
Mar. (sitting stiffly, but not awkwardly, left). Thank you.
Lady M. You are an assistant-teacher at the Midland-ton Girls' High School?
Mar. I am.
Lady M. You're aware that I am a member of the Governing Board?
