Inn. I’m not dressed to go to the Theatre.

Car. What a pity there isn’t another seat?

Carrie comes down R.; Sillocks gets up back of ladies to centre.

Hat. Oh, you must come, Mr. Innings.

Hel. (coming C.) If you will give up your seat to Mr. Innings.

Inn. (protestingly) No, no!

Dunn. If you are all settled in your seats, let me introduce Mr. Tompkins, Mr. Hamilton Tompkins, my wife—(ladies get into line with Corney top; Dunn waving his hand comprehensively) My wife’s family.

Corn. (waving his hand) How are you, Tompkins?

Hel. We are delighted to meet you.

All ladies in row curtsey rather marked; Carrie is R. corner, Helen next, Hattie next, Bea next to Corney.
