Matt. Not for the moment——
Dolly. Not the disgraceful way Harry—there's no other word—carried on!
Harry. I did not carry on—Mr. Barron, I appeal to you.
Dolly. Dad!
Matt. My dear, I certainly did not notice——
Dolly. No, he was far too careful to let anyone notice it, except his own wife!
Harry. You lay your life when I do carry on my wife will be the last person I shall allow to notice it!
Dolly. I daresay! Dad, did you hear that?
Matt. Yes. [Rousing himself a little.] Now, Harry, what about this Miss Smithson?
Harry. That's what I want to know!
